In this story:

The Las Vegas Raiders have many players entering their fourth season, with the Silver and Black, offensively and defensively.


One of those players entering his fourth season is linebacker Divine Deablo. This upcoming season will be a big one for Deablo.


He played 15 games in the 2023-24 NFL regular season and had 106 total tackles, 65 solo tackles, four tackles for loss, and two quarterback hits.


His best game of the 2023-24 regular season came in Week 14 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Deablo finished the game with 12 total tackles and seven solo tackles in the Raiders' 63- 21 win over the Chargers.


According to Pro Football Focus, Deablo finished the 2023-24 NFL regular season with a 60.6 overall grade, a 60.4 run-defense grade, a 61.8 pass-rush grade, and a 60.2 coverage grade.


In his three-year career as a linebacker, Deablo has played in 40 games and has 225 total tackles, 131 solo tackles, and six tackles for loss.


In a most recent episode of the "Las Vegas Raiders Insider Podcast," our Hondo Carpenter Sr. had the chance to talk about every linebacker in the Raiders linebacker room, including Deablo, and why 2024 is a big year for him.


"Deablo is a great kid," Carpenter said. This kid is a tackling machine. He's got to get better in coverage and get better in the run game. He's not complete at all, and he's coming into his fourth year."


"We're going to find out if he is a consistent starter who gets a significant contract extension, or is he going to get a one—or two-year deal and show us a little bit more?" Carpenter continued.


"This is a big year for Deablo. This kid is tough as nails and isn't afraid of anything. He'd headfirst into a brick wall if he thought a ball carrier was on the other side. He makes other people better, and he's going to have to get more vocal and move people around."


"He's a guy I fully expect to make the roster, and he's a very good player, just tough, and that's what you want as a linebacker."


All eyes will be on Deablo this offseason as he enters his fourth season as a linebacker.
