"He's been a perfect fit for what Jeff Ulbrich wants to do; he's got the length, the speed, the athletic ability, and the versatility to thrive in a scheme like this, and he's been a rising tide that lifts all the boats around him. I have a lot of confidence in Ulbrich and his ability to put his players in the best position to succeed, but losing Deablo is a real blow."
"Deablo has contributed 24 tackles, half a sack, one fumble recovery, and four pass breakups this season, but the extent of his impact can't be seen in the box score. He's opened things up for Kaden Elliss and has been very disruptive. He will be sorely missed, and I hope he will be able to return this season. DeAngelo Malone is the next man up on the depth chart,"
Linebacker Divine Deablo was placed on injured reserve with a forearm injury suffered in Week 7 against the San Francisco 49ers. The team can return up to eight players from injured reserve this season, or up to ten if the Falcons reach the postseason. Deablo has 24 tackles, half a sack, one fumble recovery, and four pass breakups this year, and his play has opened opportunities for teammates like Kaden Elliss. DeAngelo Malone moves up on the depth chart, and a by-committee rotation including DeMarco Hellams, JD Bertrand, Josh Woods, and Ronnie Harrison is expected to help replace Deablo.
