Bound for Atlanta The Falcons will sign Deablo, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Deablo is coming off of his least productive season as a tackler since his rookie year back in 2021, tallying 63 tackles (35 solo) over 14 games in 2024, but he'll now be getting a fresh start with a new team. He could end up starting at inside linebacker next to Kaden Elliss in 2025.

Notches 63 tackles in 2024 Deablo finished the 2024 season with 63 total tackles (35 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two passes defensed across 14 games.

Impact Deablo took a step back in production this season after recording 106 tackles in 2023, but he still had a pretty productive season. The linebacker has compiled at least 63 takedowns in each of the last three years and he should draw plenty of interest on the open market as an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Posts first sack of 2024 Deablo recorded six tackles (three solo) and a sack in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Deablo has fully shaken off the oblique injury that kept him out for three games, as he played 92 percent of the defensive snaps and posted his first sack of the season. His snap share could revert drop again when Tommy Eichenberg (hamstring) returns to full health, but he should be a decent IDP option as long as his snap count stays elevated.

Not practicing Wednesday Deablo (oblique) didn't practice Wednesday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

Impact Deablo was unable to suit up for the Raiders' last two contests due to an oblique injury, and following Wednesday's DNP, it appears he could miss even more time. The fourth-year linebacker out of Virginia Tech will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday to have a chance at playing Sunday. If Deablo misses his third consecutive game in Week 5, expect Amari Burney to see additional reps with Las Vegas' first-team defense.

Still nursing injury Deablo (oblique/concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Deablo appears to have moved past his concussion, but he's still dealing with an oblique issue that forced him to miss Wednesday's practice.

Won't play vs. Carolina Deablo (oblique/concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

Impact Deablo was a DNP in all three practices this week, and he'll have to wait one more week to suit up as he works his way through the league's concussion protocols and an oblique injury. Amari Burney, Tommy Eichenberg and Amari Gainer are all candidates to step into Deablo's starting linebacker spot, though none of those three have logged a single defensive snap over the first two games of the regular season.

Continues to sit out of practice Deablo (oblique/concussion) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Deablo was forced out of the Raiders' Week 2 win over the Ravens due to an oblique injury. He appears to also be working through the league's concussion protocols, and the fact that he's opened the week with back-to-back DNP's doesn't bode well for his chances of suiting up against the Panthers in Week 3. If Deablo is unable to play Sunday, then Amari Burney, Tommy Eichenberg and Amari Gainer would be candidates to fill in at linebacker alongside starters Robert Spillane and Luke Masterson.
