Debose missed all of last season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. He injured his knee during a noncontact drill in practice in early August and missed his senior season, which was expected to be his fifth and final year of eligibility. But Debose applied for a medical hardship waiver, which restored a year of eligibility. He missed his freshman year in 2009 following knee surgery.

According to Will Muschamp, Debose will be cleared for noncontact practice March 28.
