Divine Deablo - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Impresses when healthy Deablo recorded 73 total tackles (38 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and seven passes defensed across 13 regular-season games in 2025.

Impact Despite missing four games this season due to a forearm injury, Deablo still ranked fourth on the Falcons in total tackles and tied for fourth in passes defensed. His impact on Atlanta's defense was evident, as the team allowed 29.8 points per game while he was sidelined, compared to just 21.7 when he was active. Under contract through next season, Deablo is expected to remain an integral portion of the Falcons' linebacker corps in 2026.

Paces Falcons with 10 stops Monday Deablo tallied 10 tackles (seven solo) in a 27-24 win against the Rams on Monday.

Impact Deablo was Atlanta's leading tackler in the team's upset victory. The veteran linebacker reached double-digit stops in a game for the first time on the campaign, surpassing his previous season-high mark of eight tackles. A forearm injury cost Deablo four games earlier in the season, but he's suited up in every contest since Week 12 and has at least six stops in five of his past six games.

Impact Deablo has posted 22 tackles (17 solo) over the last three games since returning from injury. Still, his tackle count overall this season has been low with just 5.1 per game, but he should remain an every-snap linebacker for the fantasy playoffs against the Buccaneers, Cardinals and Rams.

Eight stops in return to action Deablo recorded eight total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Saints.

Impact Deablo made his return to action after missing four games with a forearm injury, finishing third on the team in takedowns behind Dee Alford (10) and Kaden Elliss (9). The eight tackles were also a new season high for the linebacker, as he has now registered 32 total tackles (14 solo), including 0.5 sacks, while also adding four passes defensed and a fumble recovery over seven contests this year.

Taken off IR, cleared for Week 12 The Falcons activated Deablo (forearm) off IR on Saturday and removed his injury designation for Sunday's tilt against New Orleans, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site repor...

Impact Deablo landed on injured reserve Oct. 25 due to a fractured forearm. He missed the minimum four games and was able to return to full practice participation Thursday and Friday this week. Though Deablo was initially deemed questionable for Sunday's contest, that designation was removed upon his activation. He should thus return to a starting role at linebacker against New Orleans.

Progresses to full practice Deablo (forearm) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Deablo is still on IR but is in the final stages of recovery from the broken forearm he suffered in Week 7 against San Francisco. Falcons coach Raheem Morris sounded optimistic about Deablo being activated in time to return to action this Sunday against the Saints, saying, "I don't want to act like I'm going to activate him and not see him. I hope we're going to see him unless something otherwise says something." Deablo has been wearing a cast on his arm during practice, and he could return to game action while continuing to do so.

Manages limited practice Wednesday Deablo (forearm) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Deablo returned to action Wednesday for the first time since fracturing his left forearm in Week 7 at San Francisco, though he was held out of some drills. He donned a club over his hand to begin Atlanta's new week of preparation, something that he might be able to take into game action as soon as Sunday against New Orleans.

Returning to practice Wednesday Head coach Raheem Morris told reporters that Deablo (forearm) will be designated to return from the injured reserve list Wednesday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The 27-year-old has missed Atlanta's last four games due to a forearm injury, but Morris told reporters Wednesday that he's "hopeful" Deablo can return for the Week 12 divisional matchup against the Saints. He must still be added to the Falcons' active roster in order to suit up Sunday. Deablo would be a huge addition to the Falcons' defense, having recorded 24 total tackles, including 0.5 sacks, and four passes defensed in six games prior to injury.

Impact Deablo was placed on injured reserve in late October after fracturing his forearm during the Falcons' Week 7 loss to the 49ers. Sunday's game against the Panthers will mark his fourth game missed due to his injury, which is the minimum number of games a player has to spend while on injured reserve. Deablo was an every-down linebacker when active, so his return would likely revert JD Bertrand to a rotational role on defense.
