Rotowire
Deablo registered seven tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 27-20 loss to Kansas City.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Posts first sack of 2024
Rotowire
Deablo recorded six tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
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 drop again when Tommy Eichenberg (hamstring) returns to full health, but Deablo should be a decent IDP option as long as his snap count stays elevated.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Iffy to play vs. Denver
Rotowire
Deablo (oblique) logged a limited practice session Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Deablo's oblique injury has caused him to miss the last two games, but he gave himself a chance at returning for Week 5 after practicing Friday. Deablo tallied nine tackles (six solo) across the first two games of the regular season before his injury.

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

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Still nursing injury
Rotowire
Deablo (oblique/concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
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. The 26-year-old's participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication on whether Deablo will miss his second straight game in Week 4, when the Raiders face the Browns.

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

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Logs another DNP
Rotowire
Deablo (oblique/concussion) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
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.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Begins Week 11 prep with LP
Rotowire
Deablo (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Deablo has been dealing with an ankle issue since Week 7, and he missed two full games before returning Week 10 against the Jets. He logged 67 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps in that contest and recorded seven tackles along with a pass breakup, but he's not yet clear of the ankle injury. Whether Deablo heads into the weekend with an injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest in Miami will likely depend on his ability to log a full practice by Friday.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Exits game Saturday
Rotowire
Deablo (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Chicago.
Deablo logged four tackles before suffering an apparent ankle injury at some point during the first half. The 25-year-old logged the Raiders' second-most tackles (48) through the first six games of the season, so his absence will leave Las Vegas with a big hole to fill. Expect Kana'i Mauga and Luke Masterson to step into bigger roles at linebacker for the time being.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Productive in win
Rotowire
Deablo recorded eight tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 23-18 loss to the Steelers.
Deablo's eight tackles were good enough for a team-high, and he is now up to 27 total through three games. He was on the field for 50 defensive snaps (83 percent) and five on special teams (17 percent). The linebacker will look to continue racking up tackles in Sunday's Week 4 game against the Chargers.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Double-digit tackles in loss
Rotowire
Deablo recorded 10 tackles, including a sack, in Sunday's 38-10 loss at the Bills.
Deablo followed up a good Week 1 performance with an even better showing in Week 2, even getting to Josh Allen for the first sack of his career. He's well on track to get to 100 tackles for the first time in as many seasons, meaning he profiles as a fine IDP option when healthy.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Vying for starting role
Rotowire
Vic Tafur of The Athletic projects that Deablo (forearm) is in line for a starting role at outside linebacker ahead of the 2023 season.
Deablo played nearly every defensive snap during the first seven games of last season for the Raiders. But, the 25-year-old linebacker sustained a forearm injury Week 9 and wound spending the remainder of the 2022 campaign on IR. Deablo still managed to accumulate a career-high 74 tackles while he was healthy last year, and, now that it appears he's had enough time to recover this offseason, the 6-foot-3 linebacker figures to be a primary contributor on the second level of Las Vegas' defense in 2023.

Raiders' Divine Deablo: Lands on IR
Rotowire
Deablo (forearm) was placed on the Raiders' injured reserve Monday.
Deablo played just two defensive snaps before being forced out of Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jaguars with a forearm injury. Now, the second-year linebacker will be sidelined until at least Las Vegas' Week 14 contest against the Rams. Deablo racked up 73 tackles and one pass defended while playing nearly every defensive snap over the first eight weeks of the season, and his absence should leave Luke Masterson to take on a bigger role alongside Blake Martinez and Denzel Perryman.
