Easley, however, indicated on his Twitter page Wednesday that he's done for the year.
The senior Tweeted: "Gatornation thank you for all of 4 yrs of sticking with me but god has something else planned for and have no worries #believe."
Easley has four quarterback hurries and two tackles for loss this season. He tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in 2011.
