This weekend and couldn’t of happened at a better time, he’s in the best shape he’s ever been and on an absolute mission. Fully expect him to take over the rest of the season ??

His presence should spark a more aggressive DL. Getting pressure on the QB is going to be paramount moving forward.
KJ has played the best out of all the DE's i.m.o. MM you wonder if he's just playing not to get hurt; double edge sword is; you could also be hurting your draft stock too.
But, XT will have something to prove, and should come out like his hair is on fire. Him on one side and KJ on the other should prove to be great for the defense.

Imo There is significant drop off at DE after KJ and Murphy. I’ve been pretty disappointed with Swint and Mascol has just been ok. We definitely need XT to be at his best to really add a spark to our pass rush and overall disruption behind the line of scrimmage.

Watch the last 6 minutes of the last game VS Syracuse, XT was downright brutal! I loved it!

Getting XT back will be huge. A rotation of KJ, XT and Murphy is explosive and when teamed with a healthy DT group of Breese, Davis, Ruke and Page, I think Wes can go with a straight up 4-3 only needing the front 4 to apply pressure, any combination of this 4 can't be blocked with 5 OT. This will allow our LB's to prevent screens and get a little deeper drop on passing downs to help the back 4. We need the front 4 to be disruptive to help the back 7 have a little more help.

Forgot to mention Williams with the DT, when healthy, he is right up there with Ruke and Davis.

That would be great. He is so exciting to watch when he is healthy.

To get drafted any higher than 5th round or later; XT would have to be a complete beast due mostly to his history of injuries.
He would have to be such a "ca n't-miss prospect" to the NFL execs. will look past the injuries.
I know he has the ability; for the Tigers sake and for his sake: "I hope he puts on a dominant show the rest of the year"!
