The Arena Football One league released its November 25 transaction report Tuesday, highlighted by roster moves in Minnesota’s secondary, two league suspensions in Nashville and a significant offensive line addition in Michigan.

Minnesota released defensive back Bikembe Kearney, a 6-foot, 195-pound product of UNC Pembroke. The Monsters added two defensive backs: Javonte Haynes, a 6-foot-2, 190-pound signee from Indiana (Pa.), and Charles Reid, a 5-foot-9, 180-pound former Assumption University standout.

Nashville placed wide receiver Todd Simmons, 6-foot-2 and 190 pounds out of Wagner, and defensive lineman Nick Evans, a 6-foot-4, 250-pound College of Charleston alum, on league suspension.

Michigan signed offensive lineman Jeremiah Zene II, a 6-foot-6, 355-pound blocker from Concordia College Selma.
