Falcons | Atlanta parts with Raheem Morris, Terry Fontenot Sun Jan 4, 08:48 PM
Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris and general manager Terry Fontenot were fired on Sunday, Jan. 4.
| Footballguys view: According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, former Falcons QB Matt Ryan is being strongly considered for a high-profile front-office role, similar to what Detroit has with Chris Spielman. As for next steps, NFL.com suggests the pieces are certainly there to attract a good candidate -- running back Bijan Robinson and wide receiver Drake London chief among them. But questions remain throughout much of the roster and at the all-important quarterback position, with Michael Penix Jr. recovering from an ACL injury. We'll continue to watch for more on this in coming weeks. |

Falcons | Six receptions for Kyle Pitts Sun Jan 4, 06:43 PM
Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts caught six passes for 58 yards against the New Orleans Saints in Week 18. He was targeted nine times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Pitts showed potential free agent suitors more in the second half of this season than he did in the two previous years he spent with the Falcons. It will be fascinating to see who targets Pitts in free agency and how much they are willing to pay him. |

Falcons | Drake London catches TD pass Sun Jan 4, 06:38 PM
Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London caught four passes for 78 yards and one touchdown against the New Orleans Saints in Week 18. He was targeted eight times during the game.
| Footballguys view: London had a big high point catch downfield, reminding us of his ability to take over games. We are still waiting for him to put together a full WR1 fantasy season, but we saw London at his peak before suffering a nagging knee injury. He should go in the first round of many 2026 fantasy drafts despite the Week 1 uncertainty at quarterback for the Falcons. |
Falcons | Tyler Allgeier not a big factor Sun Jan 4, 06:34 PM
Atlanta Falcons RB Tyler Allgeier rushed for 16 yards on seven carries against the New Orleans Saints in Week 18. He also caught one pass for three yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Allgeier will be part of a stacked free agent running back class led by Breece Hall and Kenneth Walker III. That could keep his price reasonable enough to end up returning to the Falcons. If not, Bijan Robinson should be cleared for liftoff to new levels of fantasy production next season. |
Falcons | Bijan Robinson held to 43 total yards Sun Jan 4, 06:31 PM
Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson rushed for 33 yards on 15 carries against the New Orleans Saints in Week 18. He also caught three passes for 10 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Robinson was a Week 18 dud, but that won't stop people from taking him as the #1 overall pick in 2026 fantasy drafts. It will be rare to see him fall past the #2 pick in the event that the team with the #1 pick prefers Ja'Marr Chase. If Tyler Allgeier leaves in free agency, Robinson may become the consensus #1 fantasy pick. |

Falcons | Kirk Cousins throws for 180 yards Sun Jan 4, 06:24 PM
Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins went 18-for-32 for 180 yards, one touchdown and one interception against the New Orleans Saints in Week 18.
| Footballguys view: Cousins rattled off four straight wins to end the season to finish tied with the Panthers and the Bucs in the standings. They lost the three-team tiebreaker because they were swept by the Panthers. Michael Penix is uncertain for Week 1 next season. The Falcons have already guaranteed a $10 roster bonus for Cousins, but his $35 million salary is a lot for a player who didn't seem to be in their future plans a month ago. |

Falcons | Darnell Mooney likely to play Sat Jan 3, 04:18 PM
Atlanta Falcons WR Darnell Mooney (knee) is expected to play in Week 18's game versus the New Orleans Saints, according to head coach Raheem Morris.
| Footballguys view: Multiple injuries have left Mooney pretty much ineffective in 2025. With Kyle Pitts and Drake London set to play against the Saints, there's a chance Mooney doesn't do much (which is as per usual in recent weeks). |

Falcons | Drake London likely to play Sat Jan 3, 04:18 PM
Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) is expected to play in Week 18's game versus the New Orleans Saints, according to head coach Raheem Morris.
| Footballguys view: London is clearly not himself, but he's giving it a go in the season finale. Against the Saints, we think London could post high-end WR2 numbers for Fantasy GMs still playing in Week 18. |
Falcons | Kyle Pitts likely to play Sat Jan 3, 04:18 PM
Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts (knee) is expected to play in Week 18's game versus the New Orleans Saints, according to head coach Raheem Morris.
| Footballguys view: Against the Saints on Sunday afternoon, Pitts should post TE1 numbers. With other weapons ready to play (like Drake London), Pitts may only post low-end TE1 numbers at the position in Week 18. |

Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson ran the ball 22 times for 195 yards and a touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 17. Robinson added a team-high five receptions (on eight targets) for 34 yards and a score.
| Footballguys view: A 93-yard touchdown added to another sensational night for Robinson, who had the Rams spinning to the tune of 229 scrimmage yards -- his second 200-plus scrimmage-yard outing on Monday Night Football this year. In Week 6, Robinson had a then-career-long 81-yard TD run as part of a 238-yard night against the Bills. Only Robinson and Jerry Rice have had back-to-back games with 200-plus scrimmage yards in Monday Night Football history. He's averaged 180.4 scrimmage yards per prime-time game this year. The resulting 39.9 fantasy points were second only to Derrick Henry's 45.5 in Week 17. |
