Falcons practice without key players ahead of Buccaneers matchup

The Atlanta Falcons returned to practice on Wednesday as they prepare for their Week 8 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Linebacker Divine Deablo and running back Brian Robinson Jr. were absent due to injuries; Deablo has a forearm injury, while Robinson is dealing with a hamstring issue. Both players missed last week's victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Rookie linebacker Kendal Daniels stepped in effectively during that game. The Falcons are expecting to release their full injury report later today, which will provide further clarity on player statuses ahead of Sunday.
