LSU Tigers down one marquee pass rusher this week for Alabama

On Monday, LSU’s defense suffered a major blow.

Prior to facing Alabama on Saturday, the Tigers will be without one of its best edge rushers as Michael Divinity was dismissed from the team.

News was first reported from Brody Miller of The Athletic on the talented senior outside linebacker.

According to Miller’s article, Divinity was already scheduled to miss a few games because of a “coach’s decision” yet the coaching staff decided to part ways with him altogether.

Through five games, he has 23 total tackles – including four for loss and a team-high three sacks.
