Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) has been ruled out for Week 14.
| Footballguys view: London has yet to practice since suffering a PCL sprain at the end of Week 11. He was getting red hot prior to the injury, registering 100-plus yards in five of his last six games. He hopes to return before the season ends, but fantasy managers will be without him for at least one more week. Don't expect much from a Kirk Cousins-led offense without their top pass-catcher. Touches will likely funnel to the running backs. |

Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) is not participating during the media-access portion of practice Thursday, Dec. 4.
| Footballguys view: That's two DNPs for London this week. He's not yet been declared out, but it's unlikely he plays against the Seahawks. Without London for the last couple of games, we've seen an increased target share for Kyle Pitts, Bijan Robinson, and Darnell Mooney. |
Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee), S DeMarcco Hellams (hamstring), DE Brandon Dorlus (groin) and DT David Onyemata (foot) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 3.

Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) is out of practice Wednesday, Dec. 3.
| Footballguys view: It's not a good start to the week for London. He could still be out there against the Seahawks, but a DNP on Wednesday makes that unlikely. The Falcons don't need to rush him back because their 2025 season isn't going anywhere. |
Atlanta Falcons WR Deven Thompkins reverted back to the practice squad Monday, Dec. 1, after being on the active roster for the Week 13 game.
Link to storyAtlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) is considered day-to-day and could be available for the Week 14 game, according to head coach Raheem Morris.
| Footballguys view: Morris said that London, who missed the last two games with a sprained PCL, "certainly has a chance" to play on Sunday. "We'll need to see him move around a little bit this week," the coach added. London has caught 60 passes for 810 yards with six touchdowns so far in 2025. He's racked up 100 yards in each of his last three contests. Of course, as CBSSports.com pointed out, the 4-8 Falcons don't have much to play for, so rushing London back at less than 100 percent doesn't make a whole lot of sense. We'll be watching for more. |

Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts registered team highs with seven receptions, 82 yards and eight targets in Week 13 against the New York Jets.
| Footballguys view: Pitts clicked with Kirk Cousins against a Jets team that he had what seemed like a breakout game once upon a time. The Seahawks are a tough matchup next week, but Pitts could be a good play in PPR leagues if Drake London isn't ready to return. |

Atlanta Falcons WR Deven Thompkins was good for two receptions for 23 yards on two targets in Week 13 against the New York Jets, while he also ran once for five yards.
Link to storyAtlanta Falcons RB Tyler Allgeier rushed eight times for 20 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the New York Jets, and he added two receptions for 35 yards on his two targets.
Link to storyAtlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson rushed 23 times for 142 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the New York Jets, while adding five receptions for 51 yards on seven targets.
| Footballguys view: This was a relief as Robinson showed that he can have a ceiling game even with Kirk Cousins at quarterback. Robinson even got the first and goal carry before Tyler Allgeier scored on second and goal. Next week against the Seahawks will be a much tougher matchup, but Robinson has to have you feeling better after this week than you felt last week. |

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins completed 21-of-33 passes for 234 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 13 against the New York Jets, and he did not have a rushing attempt.
| Footballguys view: The Falcons chose to punt instead of trusting the offense on two fourth and shorts near midfield in a picture of what they think of Cousins. He's only a desperation QB2/Superflex option against the Seahawks next week while we wait for news of when he'll get Drake London back. |

Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) has been ruled out of the Week 13 game.
| Footballguys view: London will miss his second straight game after leaving Week 11 late with a knee injury. He had been on a tear, posting 100-plus yards in five of his previous six games. In what's starting to look like a lost season, London is likely in no rush to return until his knee is fully healthy. |

Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said the team will need to make alternative quarterback plans for 2026 in case QB Michael Penix Jr. (knee) has not recovered by the beginning of next season. Penix will undergo surgery in Los Angeles during the upcoming week to have his anterior cruciate ligament restructured and it is estimated that he could be sidelined for nine months, according to multiple sources.
| Footballguys view: It's unlikely that Kirk Cousins will still be with the team next season unless his play dramatically improves from the level he was at in the 34-10 loss to the Dolphins in his first start this season. The 2026 fantasy value of Drake London and Bijan Robinson could be in for a rocky start. |

Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) did not participate in practice Friday, Nov. 21, and has been ruled out for Week 12.
| Footballguys view: There was never an expectation that London would play this week, and he might miss additional time. Michael Penix Jr. is out for the year, and Kirk Cousins should close out the season as the Falcons' starter. When London does return, quarterback play will likely suppress his weekly projections. London and Penix's injuries came at a very inopportune time for fantasy managers hoping to rely on him during a championship run. |
