The mother of the football player involved in an alleged hazing incident at North Carolina says the family is ''worried about justice'' for her son.

In a brief phone interview Friday with The Associated Press, Kimber Boyer said the family is waiting for the university to complete its investigation into an incident that reportedly left walk-on receiver Jackson Boyer with a possible concussion.

She says they're a private family that wants ''to handle this justly.''

Coach Larry Fedora suspended four players for Saturday's opener against Liberty for a violation of team policy, though he didn't specify what rules were broken.

The suspensions came a day after a Yahoo Sports report of an alleged altercation that left Boyer injured, though the school hasn't confirmed it was a hazing incident.
