A. I wonder if this is going to actually happen (I suspect it is)
B. I assume he will be mainly a situational player, and I'm wondering what types of packages the analyst team and Aranda will prepare for him.

He was a situational rusher when he played

Won’t be any different

Honestly I don’t care if he plays or not.

The defense has been playing their best ball without him. And he was OK but not great when he was in there.

If he plays and can contribute great but this game in no way hinges on Divinity’s status.

Hasn’t Marcel Brooks been filling Divinity’s role? It would be hard to pull Brooks out with how he has been playing.

Seems like every time a player has come back from a long hiatus he doesn't play all that great. That goes for NFL too. Everyone want to believe they will be back wrecking shite but it just doesn't pan out right away.

Not much of an impact. He’s good but not a world beater or anything. We’ve been fine without him.

This situation differs in that Divinity will have been practicing for two months straight by the 13th. He’ll be fine.

I think he'll play a big role in this game. I mean he's got 4 years in this defense and was out best pass rusher at times. If we can get pressure on Lawrence and get off the field on 3rd down we'll win

Rotating brooks, Chiasson and divinity means fresh pass rush legs

I like it! it gives another pass rusher in our rotation and more depth at Linebacker

He’s the perfect Lawrence nut cracker

I’d like to see him decleat that Frankenstein

Didn't he lead the team in sacks before the suspension? Despite only playing in 2/3 of the games.

He was coming on before suspension and I thought him and Queen were starting to become a really disruptive force.

If he can stay disciplined we may need him against that rushing attack as depth. He can lay the wood and run. He won’t bounce off Lawrence that’s for sure.

This!

He gives us depth which makes us better.

He’ll fly into the backfield toward the QB at lightning speed and WHIFF as usual and the qb will run for a first down. Happened many times this year. He plays out of control.

I think the biggest potential impact will be on those 3rd downs where we only play 1 down lineman(usually 90) along with 3 LB's on the LOS.

He will probably rotate with Clark in that package.

Probably where you see Damone Clark playing on pass downs. Replace him with Divinity.

That’s an understatement ... Lawrence could bounce off him after being decleated ...

Concussion protocol is a certainty for Lord Lawrence in this game
