Drake London remained listed as out of practice on Tuesday’s estimated injury report.

Related players: Kyle Pitts

London has missed the past three games with a knee injury, and it doesn’t appear he will return this week, the story speculated. The team’s report remained the same from Monday. Pitts was listed as limited with a knee injury.

Falcons WR Drake London is out for Sunday’s game against the Seahawks.

Related Players: Darnell Mooney, Kyle Pitts, David Sills

The runway was cleared for a Mooney (re)breakout game in Week 13 and he delivered a 2-25-0 performance on five targets, so even if London were to miss, it's hard to trust his counterpart as more than a fringe WR3/4.

Pitts, on the other hand, had a nice 7-82-0 line, and should be considered a low-end TE1 once again.

Practice updates:
-- Falcons WR Drake London (PCL) won't practice today, casting doubt on his availability this Sunday.
-- The Cardinals will open the practice window for DL LJ Collier.
-- Bills edge Joey Bosa (hamstring) won’t practice today, and neither will WR Josh Palmer and LB Terrel Bernard.

Raheem Morris says WR Drake London is now day to day and "has a chance" to play this weekend.

Keep an eye on practice reports this week, which will hopefully give us an indication if London will play. The day to day tag is at least a good sign. The Falcons host the Seahawks in the early window of Sunday games, so owners will have plenty of time to adjust their lineups.

WR Drake London (knee) is out for this weekend.

Hard to trust anyone in this offense at this point, but we can consider Mooney a WR3 type while Pitts is in the TE15 range.

Falcons coach Raheem Morris just said that he thinks WR Drake London is "doubtful" for the Jets.

Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr does, in fact, need surgery to repair his ACL, with 9 months of recovery, at least, coming.

He’s sought the opinion of experts, including from Dr. Neal ElAttrache. Penix has an ACL sprain, but full reconstruction is needed.

Related Players: Kirk Cousins

It'll be the Kirk Cousins show the rest of the way, and if the veteran's play this season is any indication, that's bad news for the offense as a whole. Cousins has earned 0.20 fantasy points per dropback in 2025, a mark that would rank well below the 39th-qualifying quarterback across the league (Cam Ward - 0.25). He can be left on waiver wires in all but the deepest leagues.

While it’s currently unclear whether or not Michael Penix Jr. will miss the rest of the 2025 season, he is at least going to be sidelined for four weeks.

According to a report from NFL Media, Penix is going to be placed on injured reserve after aggravating a bone bruise and knee sprain he initially suffered earlier in the 2025 season.

Plus, the report notes, there has been damage to Penix’s ACL, which could lead to a full knee reconstruction, the story said. Penix had two ACL tears in his right knee in college, but this injury is to his left knee. Penix will miss the next four weeks for sure but there seems to be a good chance his season is finished. Cousins will get the start in Week 12 and may remain in that spot for the rest of the season.

Falcons wide receiver Drake London left Sunday’s loss to the Panthers with a knee injury and word is that he won’t be back for Week 12.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that London will not play against the Saints because of a PCL sprain.

Per the report, London could miss more games as a result of the injury as well. London leads the Falcons with 60 catches for 810 yards and six touchdowns this season. Word also just broke at that QB Michael Penix may be out for the season, leaving the QB duties to backup Kirk Cousins, who now looks to be without the team's top target. The names aren't household behind London, so the Falcons may look to target Pitts and Robinson more going forward. Robinson was second, behind London, with four catches in Week 11's loss to the Panthers.

Falcons WR Drake London is not believed to have suffered a major knee injury during Sunday's loss to the Panthers.

London suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter. The Falcons went on to lose in overtime. London will find out Monday just how long he'll miss. It's the latest in what's become a nightmare season for the Falcons. Sunday was their 5th straight loss to drop to 3-7 and Michael Penix Jr. also was banged up in the game and Kirk Cousins had to step in.
