Three more players should return to Todd Orlando’s defense — senior linebacker Jeffrey McCulloch (shoulder), sophomore safety DeMarvion Overshown (shoulder), and junior safety Chris Brown (arm) are all listed as probable. Brown especially could be an important addition to the defense, even though he’ll play with a cast on his forearm.
