News

  • Next Gen Stats

    Drake London has caught a league-high 11 receptions on targets with a sub-50% completion probability this season.

    Updated Wed, Oct 30 at 3:42pm
  • Limited to four catches in win

    London brought in four of six targets for 34 yards in the Falcons' 31-26 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Unlike a Week 5 breakout when he posted a season-best 12-154-1 line against these same Bucs, London was limited to his second-lowest reception and receiving yardage totals of the season. The third-year pro also saw his six-game streak with at least six receptions snapped, and a three-game stretch with at least one receiving touchdown met the same fate. London's first chance to regroup comes in a Week 9 home matchup against the Cowboys.

  • Finds end zone again Sunday

    London secured six of eight targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 34-14 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

    Analysis: London finished as the runner-up in receptions and receiving yards right behind Kyle Pitts while tying Darnell Mooney for second in targets as well. The third-year pro also recorded a touchdown for the third straight game on a five-yard grab midway through the third quarter and now has exactly six catches in four of his last five games. London next takes aim at a Buccaneers secondary that he posted a season-best 12-154-1 line against during a Week 6 overtime home victory.

  • Stays hot with another TD

    London had six receptions (10 targets) for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-20 win over Carolina.

    Analysis: London followed up last week's 12-154-1 receiving line against the Buccaneers with another positive fantasy performance against another NFC South rival in Week 6. The 2022 first-round pick has now scored a touchdown in four out of his last five contests while averaging 82.6 yards per game over that stretch. Make sure to make space in your starting lineup for London ahead of next Sunday's home matchup against Seattle.

  • Dominant showing in OT win

    London brought in 12 of 13 targets for 154 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 36-30 overtime win over the Buccaneers on Thursday night.

    Analysis: London led the Falcons in receptions and receiving yards on the night while checking in second to Darnell Mooney in targets, serving as the biggest beneficiary of Kirk Cousins' record-setting 509-yard performance. The talented third-year wideout opened the scoring on the night as well, recording an 18-yard touchdown grab to cap off the opening possession. London now has three touchdowns in the last four games and double-digit targets in back-to-back contests, displaying a level of chemistry…read more

  • Returns to action

    London (head) returned to Thursday's game against Tampa Bay after being evaluated for a concussion, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: London was hit in the head early in the second quarter and missed roughly one full offensive possession while being evaluated for a concussion. He was cleared and returned to game action with just over half of the second quarter remaining.

  • Being evaluated for head injury

    London exited Thursday's game against Tampa Bay and is being evaluated for a head injury, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: London got off to a quick start, racking up three catches for 38 yards and a touchdown. However, he took a hard shot to the head area while working over the middle of the field early in the second quarter. London went to the locker room, and there should be further clarity on his status once the evaluation is complete.

  • Six grabs in win over Saints

    London caught six of 12 targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 26-24 win over New Orleans.

    Analysis: The third-year wideout saw a season high in targets, but it didn't translate into increased production as London caught exactly six passes for the third straight game, and he's hauled in between 54 and 67 yards in all three. New Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins still seems to be adjusting to his new scheme, which has limited London's upside. The duo may need to develop better chemistry quickly ahead of a Week 5 clash with the Buccaneers.

  • Scores second TD in loss

    London finished with six receptions (on nine targets) for 67 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: London joined Bijan Robinson as the pair of young Falcons to cash in on scoring plays in a one-score loss to last year's champs. The No. 1 wideout led Atlanta in targets and yardage while grabbing the only touchdown thrown by Kirk Cousins on Sunday. London has seen his production steadily increase in each week to begin the 2024 campaign, highlighting a potential breakout in a divisional matchup when the Falcons host the Saints on Sunday.

  • Scores game-winning TD Monday

    London brought in six of seven targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 22-21 win over the Eagles on Monday night.

    Analysis: London began the Falcons' game-winning drive with an unremarkable 4-42-0 receiving line. However, the third-year wideout made his last two catches count, recording a five-yard reception that brought Atlanta down to the Eagles' seven-yard line before hauling in the game-winning touchdown two plays later. The chemistry between London and Kirk Cousins still is clearly a work in progress, but Monday's numbers were a nice bump up from his 2-15-0 line Week 1. London should have plenty of…read more

  • Limited to three targets

    London recorded two receptions on three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: London was expected to reach a new level of production this season with a modernized offense in Atlanta and Kirk Cousins under center. However, his Week 1 performance left plenty to be desired, as he finished with fewer targets than Ray-Ray McCloud and Bijan Robinson. Cousins was uncharacteristically inefficient in his first game action in 10 months, so it's probably too early to panic.

  • Key starters not playing Friday

    London is listed among Falcons starters not suiting up for Friday's preseason opener against the Dolphins, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Atlanta won't play key starters including London, fellow wideouts Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud, quarterback Kirk Cousins, running backs Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier, plus tight end Kyle Pitts in Friday's exhibition contest. The third-year pro's next opportunity to suit up for preseason action will come Aug. 17 on the road at Baltimore.

  • Clear of cramping

    London (overheating/leg cramps) returned for the evening portion of Friday's practice, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: London departed the morning portion of practice Friday after he experienced leg cramps and overheating. However, the wideout was able to return for the evening walkthrough, suggesting that he's clear of any concerns. Josh Kendall of The Athletic adds that London will be on the field when the Falcons practice Saturday. This year's training camp is particularly important for London as he looks to build a rapport with new starting quarterback Kirk Cousins.

  • Leaves practice due to overheating

    London left Friday's practice because of cramps and overheating, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: There was briefly concern about an injury when London made an early exit and was seen talking with trainers. It turns out he just needs rest and water, so it shouldn't be long before he's back to building chemistry with new starting quarterback Kirk Cousins.

  • Exits practice with injury

    London left Friday's practice with an apparent injury, ESPN's Marc Raimondi reports.

    Analysis: Initial reports don't make it sound too serious, with London reportedly walking off the field and spending some time talking to trainers. His day is likely done, but it's unclear at this point if Atlanta's top WR will miss any additional practices.

  • Outlook looking up

    London is positioned to benefit from improved quarterback play going forward, with Kirk Cousins (Achilles) having officially inked a four-year deal worth up to $180 million with the Falcons on Wednesday.

    Analysis: London has sketched solid behind-the-scenes metrics in each of his first two pro seasons. However, while having to endure a combination of Marcus Mariota, Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke under center, the 2022 first-round pick has also failed to record a 1,000-yard receiving campaign yet. He finished his rookie season with a 72-866-4 line while playing all 17 games, and 2023 with a 69-905-2 line in one less contest. Even coming off an Achilles tear at 35 years old, Cousins promises reliable…read more

  • Four catches to close out season

    London brought in four of nine targets for 41 yards in the Falcons' 48-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

    Analysis: London's second season finished with a quiet performance, even as he logged a team high in targets. London also finished second in receptions and third in receiving yards on the afternoon, but he'll wrap up his sophomore campaign having failed to hit 50 receiving yards in three of his last four contests. London did set a new personal best with 905 receiving yards for the season, and he could certainly enjoy his best season yet in 2024 if there is an offensive and/or quarterback upgrade in…read more

  • Quiet again in Week 17

    London secured four of 10 targets for 56 yards in the Falcons' 37-17 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

    Analysis: London certainly didn't lack for opportunity while leading the team in targets by a wide margin, but he and Taylor Heinicke found chemistry elusive in the snowy environment of Soldier Field. The speedy second-year wideout has been under 60 receiving yards for three straight games, but he should have a good chance of improving on recent production if he sees a similar amount of passes come his way in a Week 18 road matchup against the Saints.

  • Three catches in Week 16 win

    London brought in three of four targets for 39 yards in the Falcons' 29-10 win over the Colts on Sunday.

    Analysis: London had a quiet day overall but still tied for second in receptions on the afternoon for the Falcons. The speedy wideout should have a chance at a strong finish to the season now that the steadier Taylor Heinicke has taken back over for Desmond Ridder at quarterback, and he'll have a favorable matchup against the Bears' inconsistent secondary on the road in Week 17.

  • Contained in Week 15 loss

    London brought in two of three targets for 24 yards in the Falcons' 9-7 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

    Analysis: London's day was disappointing under any context for fantasy managers rolling with him in their playoff games or critical late-season contests, but it was additionally alarming when considering the receiver's season-best 10-172 line on 11 targets in Week 14. London now has his two least productive games since a catchless opener in the last three contests, and he'll look to bounce back against the Colts in a Week 16 home matchup on Christmas Eve.

  • Stellar production in Week 14 loss

    London brought in 10 of 11 targets for 172 yards in the Falcons' 29-25 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also recorded a two-point conversion catch.

    Analysis: London led the Falcons across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets, with some final padding on his numbers coming in the form of a 28-yard grab on Desmond Ridder's desperation heave as time ran out. London consistently did similar damage throughout the day, bedeviling the Buccaneers' secondary with several chunk gains, including a game-long 45-yard catch. London's catch and yardage numbers were also career highs, sending him into a Week 15 road matchup against the Panthers with…read more

  • Non-factor in win over Jets

    London caught one of five targets for eight yards in Sunday's 13-8 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: London accounted for the only catch by a Falcons wide receiver in the game against New York's stout secondary. He came into Sunday's win having topped 50 receiving yards in five of his previous six appearances, so London should be more involved in Week 14 at home against a Buccaneers secondary that's been far more permissive to wide receivers.

  • Impressive working with Ridder

    London brought in five of seven targets for 91 yards in the Falcons' 24-15 win over the Saints on Sunday.

    Analysis: London comfortably led the Falcons in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon while working with Desmond Ridder as his quarterback for a full game for the first time since Week 7. London's yardage total was his highest since Week 6 and second best of the season, but the entire Atlanta air attack faces a tough matchup against the Jets' stingy secondary on the road in Week 13.

  • Modest numbers Sunday

    London caught three of four targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 25-23 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: The second-year wideout actually led Atlanta in receiving yards Sunday in his return from a one-game absence due to a minor groin issue while tying Kyle Pitts for the team lead in catches, as quarterbacks Taylor Heinicke (hamstring) and Desmond Ridder combined for a paltry 94 passing yards. London hasn't scored a TD since Week 4 and has topped 70 receiving yards only twice in nine games this season, but the eighth overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft is still the team's biggest downfield threat.…read more

    London (groin) was a full practice participant Thursday, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: London's ability to take every rep at Thursday's practice clears the way for him to return to action Sunday against the Cardinals after he sat out the Falcons' 31-28 loss to the Vikings in Week 9. Since drawing just one target in a Week 1 win over Carolina, London has drawn no fewer than six looks in the passing game in any of his last seven outings, stringing together a 37-438-2 receiving line over that span. He'll now get his first chance to work in a full game with quarterback Taylor…read more

    London (groin) was a limited participant Wednesday in his return to practice, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: London didn't practice at all last week and missed Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Vikings. His return Wednesday -- even in a limited capacity -- gives him some chance to suit up Sunday at Arizona, though D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution notes that London didn't look to be running full speed. Progression to full practice Thursday or Friday would indicate readiness for a return and give London his first shot to play with Taylor Heinicke as the starting quarterback instead of…read more

    Falcons head coach Arthur Smith said that London (knee) will be back on the practice field Wednesday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: London wasn't able to practice in any capacity last week en route to being listed as inactive ahead of the Falcons' loss to the Vikings, but Smith says the wideout is now "trending in the right direction." If London is indeed able to practice in even a limited capacity Wednesday, it will represent a notable step toward him being available to play this Sunday in Arizona.

    Head coach Arthur Smith said Monday that the Falcons hope London (groin) will be available for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: London sat out this past Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Vikings after he was unable to practice all week, but he looks like he's trending toward a return to the lineup Week 10. The wideout's practice activity will still warrant monitoring in the coming days to ensure he's on a path to play in Arizona.

  • Won't play against Vikings

    London (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: London was unable to practice throughout the week after hurting his groin in the 28-23 Week 8 loss to Tennessee. With London out, new starting quarterback Taylor Heinicke will have Van Jefferson and Mack Hollins as his top two wide receivers, with tight end Kyle Pitts possibly set for a larger role in the passing game as well. London's next chance to play will come in Week 10 against the Cardinals.

  • Not seen at Friday's practice

    London (groin) wasn't spotted during the media-access portion of Friday's practice, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: London also missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, so the wideout's apparent absence from Friday's session clouds his status for Sunday's game against the Vikings. The Falcons' upcoming injury report will clarify whether or not London has a chance to be available for Week 9 action.

    London (groin) officially didn't practice Thursday, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: London's lack of activity comes as no surprise after he wasn't present for the media-access portion of Thursday's session, marking his second straight DNP. He thus has just one more chance to log some on-field work before the Falcons potentially make a ruling on his availability ahead of Sunday's contest against the Vikings. If London is limited or sidelined this weekend, it could mean more targets for Atlanta's tight ends and running backs considering the underwhelming options behind him on…read more

  • Absent for another practice

    London (groin) wasn't present for Thursday's practice and is expected to be listed as a non-participant on the Falcons' official injury report, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: London previously failed to practice Wednesday, so he'll likely need to get back on the field in some fashion Friday to put himself in position to play Sunday against the Vikings. If London ends up sitting out this weekend, wideouts Van Jefferson, Mack Hollins and KhaDarel Hodge as well as tight ends Kyle Pitts and Jonnu Smith could all be in store for more looks in the Falcons' Taylor Heinicke-led passing game.

    Analysis: London exited Sunday's loss to the Titans with a groin injury, and despite being labeled as questionable to return to the game, he stayed on the sideline for the rest of the day. Head coach Arthur Smith was non-committal about London's chances of playing Week 9 versus the Vikings, and Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com relays that the second-year wideout is considered day-to-day. If London manages to gain clearance for Sunday's game against the Vikings, he will have to link up with Taylor Heinicke…read more

    London sustained a groin injury during Sunday's game in Tennessee, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: London had a 21-yard connection with backup quarterback Taylor Heinicke in the third quarter, but the wide receiver took a hard hit from two Titans defenders and immediately made his way to the sideline, where he was tended to by trainers. At the time he exited the contest, London had five catches (on seven targets) for 55 yards.

    Analysis: London led the Falcons in targets, catches and receiving yards. Three of his four highest yardage totals have come in the last three games, a span in which London has racked up 21 catches on 28 targets for 257 yards. London had a third-quarter catch that was the subject of a fascinating review, as he had the ball come out while flipping through the air near the sideline and reaching for the goal line.

  • Tops 100 yards in Week 6

    London caught nine of 12 targets for 125 yards during Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Commanders.

    Analysis: London set season highs in targets, receptions and yards. Over the last two weeks, the second-year wideout has secured 15 passes for 203 yards and appears to be picking up speed after a slow start to the campaign. However, his overall production has still been inconsistent, and he faces a decent pass defense in Tampa Bay next week. As a rookie, London caught six of eight targets for 120 yards during the Falcons' Week 18 win over a Buccaneers squad that was resting most of its regulars.

    London brought in six of nine targets for 78 yards and completed his only pass attempt for 22 yards in the Falcons' 21-19 win over the Texans on Sunday.

    Analysis: The talented second-year wideout finished second in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Falcons on the afternoon. London's catch total also tied for his best through his first five games, while his receiving yardage and targets were both season highs.

  • Finds end zone in Week 4 loss

    London caught three of seven targets for 28 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Jaguars.

    Analysis: After hauling in a 15-yard strike from Desmond Ridder on the Falcons' first possession of the second half, London very nearly caught a second score in the fourth quarter but couldn't get a second foot down at the back of the end zone. The second-year wideout scored only four TDs in 17 games as a rookie, so his red-zone usage early in 2023 is encouraging; however, his target volume and the erratic play of Ridder have put a firm ceiling on London's fantasy value so far. He could have a hard time…read more

  • Records two receptions in loss

    London caught two of six targets for 31 yards during Sunday's 20-6 loss versus Detroit.

    Analysis: London finished fourth on the team in targets and third in receiving yards. It was certainly a disappointing performance after the wideout submitted a 6-67-1 line versus Jaire Alexander and the Packers in Week 2. You can't blame this effort on Atlanta's run-heavy scheme, as Desmond Ridder attempted 38 passes. London's skill set is up there with the elite pass catchers in the NFL, but his usage hasn't been conducive to consistent production in fantasy.

  • Catches first TD of 2023

    London caught six of seven targets for 67 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 25-24 win over the Packers.

    Analysis: After getting blanked in the season opener, London quickly got going in Week 2 with a screen pass on Atlanta's first offensive play. The 2022 first-round pick found a groove after that. London beat Jaire Alexander for 22 yards on a third-and-15 in the second quarter and got the better of the All-Pro cornerback again late in the first half, securing a three-yard touchdown with just 16 seconds left. The wideout also bested Alexander for 24 yards on the first play of Atlanta's game-winning drive.…read more

  • Blanked in opener

    London failed to catch his only target during Sunday's 24-10 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: London was a non-factor, as Atlanta leaned heavily on the run. Desmond Ridder attempted just 18 passes and was sacked four times. Kyle Pitts led the team with 44 receiving yards (two receptions), while Bijan Robinson paced the squad with six receptions (27 yards). London remains a huge part of the Falcons' offense moving forward, but fantasy managers should be aware that coach Arthur Smith isn't going to force-feed pass catchers if the running game is working like it was versus Carolina.

  • Makes acrobatic catch

    London recorded two receptions on three targets for 33 yards in Friday's 13-13 tie against the Bengals in preseason action.

    Analysis: London played for one offensive drive but still made a significant impact. The highlight of his performance came on a long third down when Desmond Ridder lofted a ball down the left sideline that London out-jumped DJ Turner to haul in. London is in line to lead the Atlanta pass-catching corps alongside Kyle Pitts when the regular season kicks off against Carolina.

Unsurprisingly, he also recorded his lowest reception and yardage total in that span. In addition to lost volume, London was also limited to working in the short areas of the field, as his longest catch went for 13 yards and three of his five receptions went for single-digit gains.

    Analysis: For the second straight game, London showed impressive chemistry with fellow rookie Desmond Ridder, as he led Atlanta in catches and receiving yards. London has posted a 14-166-0 line on 20 targets in two games with Ridder under center, giving the eighth overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft upside and momentum heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Cardinals.

The wideout saw double-digit targets for a second straight game and the third time during the campaign. During those contests, London has totaled 21 receptions for 251 yards and one score.

All six of the rookie's receptions went for at least 10 yards, including a 37-yard catch in the second quarter. With Kyle Pitts (knee) out for the year, London will look to build off his career-high performance and emerge as Atlanta's top pass-catching option moving forward.

The rookie first-round pick continues to be limited in Atlanta's run-heavy offense, but despite Zaccheaus' breakout game, London figures to be the Falcons' go-to pass catcher in the absence of Kyle Pitts (knee).

However, the rookie wideout saw only two targets the rest of the way and failed to secure another catch, marking his second game with one or fewer receptions.

London still couldn't clear the 40-yard mark, however, making it four consecutive games for the first-round selection under that modest threshold.

London has now failed to top 40 receiving yards in six consecutive games, an unfavorable streak he'll aim to snap in a Week 10 divisional matchup against the Panthers on Thursday night.

London is likely to see his volume tick back up moving forward -- he has at least six targets in five of seven games this season -- though he has now failed to top 40 yards in four consecutive games.

    Analysis: London was bothered late in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's loss at Tampa Bay by a knee issue, which caused him to limp to the sideline at one point. He's managed to avoid the injury report entirely just three days later and thus should be ready to go for a Week 6 matchup with the 49ers, who have allowed the 13th-fewest receiving yards per game (148) but just two touchdowns to opposing wide receivers through five contests this season.

    London had two receptions on seven targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Browns.

    Analysis: Atlanta's passing game was a non-factor despite the team getting the victory, resulting in poor stat lines for London and the rest of the receiving corps. The Falcons' first-round pick from this year's draft led the team with seven targets, with no other wideout receiving more than two. London had been a reliable starting fantasy option prior to Sunday's dud, so fantasy managers should remain confident heading into a matchup against Tampa Bay next Sunday.

London showed the ability to get open at various depths of target, highlighted by a four-yard touchdown catch and receptions that went for gains of 22 and 19 yards.

    Coach Arthur Smith didn't provide an update on London's (knee) health after Friday's preseason win at Detroit, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Prior to his early exit, London recorded a 24-yard catch and run, looking the part of a first-round pick. However, the rookie wide receiver had his right leg examined in the blue medical tent and eventually was ruled out with a knee injury. Bridget Condon of NFL Network later reported London was walking about the sideline and didn't seem to be dealing with anything too severe. Afterward, Smith relayed that the Falcons will have a better idea about London's injury Saturday, likely after he goes…read more

  • Hurts knee Friday

    Though London was forced out of Friday's preseason game against the Lions with a knee injury, NFL Network's Bridget Condon noted that the rookie wideout was subsequently spotted walking around on the sideline.

    Analysis: Per Condon, "whatever the issues is, it doesn't appear to be too serious." Though that's an encouraging initial report, London's status is nonetheless worth monitoring in the coming days. Prior to his first-quarter exit from the contest, the No. 8 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft caught his lone target for 24 yards.

  • Key role expected

    London is listed toward the bottom of the Falcons' unofficial posted depth chart, but Scott Bair of the team's official site notes that's an approach coach Arthur Smith typically takes with rookies at this stage of the preseason.

    Analysis: With that in mind, Bair notes that London -- who the Falcons took eighth overall in the 2022 NFL Draft -- typically works with the team's first unit during training camp practices, and has held his own against Atlanta's top cornerbacks. Bair adds that "it's fair to expect London will play a ton once the regular season begins, as a top receiver worthy of being listed first at his position." Also in the mix for wideout targets early on are the likes of Bryan Edwards, Olamide Zaccheaus, KhaDarel…read more

  • Dominating start to training camp

    London (ankle) made several highlight-worthy plays during Atlanta's training camp practice Saturday, Deen Worley of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: London broke his foot in October last year, which sidelined him for the remainder of his final campaign at USC. However, the No. 8 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft hasn't appeared limited at all during his offseason work with the Falcons. At 6-foot-4, London has the frame to be an elite red-zone threat, but his route running makes him a potential No. 1 WR as a rookie. While the 22-year-old holds all the talent in the world, his fantasy production will be directly correlated to how well Marcus…read more
