Kansas receiver Dezmon Briscoe has been reinstated, Jayhawks coach Mark Mangino said.

Briscoe was suspended from the team at the start of spring practice for an undisclosed violation of team rules and missed all of the Jayhawks' spring work.

Briscoe, a junior, was a second-team All-Big 12 selection in 2008 after catching 92 passes for school-record totals of 1,407 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns. He ranked fourth among Football Bowl Subdivision players with an average of 108.2 receiving yards per game and was the offensive MVP in the Jayhawks' Insight Bowl victory over Minnesota.

Mangino also said that the status of running back Jocques Crawford remains unchanged. Crawford was suspended for an undisclosed violation of team rules and did not appear in Kansas' April 11 spring game.
