Divine Deablo’s Potential Return Boosts Falcons’ Hopes for Week 12
The Atlanta Falcons are clinging to optimism as they prepare for their Week 12 clash against the New Orleans Saints, with linebacker Divine Deablo’s return from injury sparking fresh hope.
Injury Struggles for the Falcons
The Falcons have navigated a challenging season riddled with injuries, losing key players at crucial moments. This persistent struggle has weighed heavily on the team’s performance, making any positive news a welcome relief. Deablo’s potential comeback could provide the spark the Falcons desperately need as they gear up for a pivotal matchup.
Deablo’s Designation and Practice Return
On Monday, Falcons head coach Raheem Morris announced that Deablo would be designated to return from injured reserve, with the formal activation taking place on Wednesday. This marks a significant step forward for the linebacker, who has been sidelined since fracturing his arm in Week 7 against the San Francisco 49ers.
“Assuming everything goes well, he should be back playing,” Morris stated, instilling a sense of optimism around the team’s preparations.
A Sight for Sore Eyes
Wednesday’s practice saw Deablo back on the field for the first time in over a month, albeit with a noticeable addition: a sizable cast on his right forearm. The sight of him participating in drills provided a much-needed morale boost for both the team and its fans.
As the Falcons look to regain their footing in the competitive NFC South, Deablo’s return could be a turning point. His presence on the field not only strengthens the defense, but also embodies the resilience the Falcons need to overcome their injury woes and push toward the playoffs.
With the anticipation building, all eyes will be on Deablo as the weekend approaches, eager to see if he can indeed make his long-awaited return to action.
