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.

Todd Bowles says Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan are out for Sunday. Making progress but not there yet.

Related Players: Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin, Tez Johnson

It seemed like Week 14 would be a pretty quick turnaround for both wide receivers who just had their 21-day practice windows opened, but it's still a good sign for their return, potentially as early as Week 15. For now, continue to consider Egbuka as a high-end WR2, while Godwin is more of a WR3.

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.

Sources: Bucs legendary WR Mike Evans is having his practice window opened off IR, and he’ll return to practice today. A quicker than expected return from a broken clavicle, Evans has been medically cleared.

So Jalen McMillan and Evans practice today.

We'll see what kind of immediate impact these two could have for your fantasy squads, but it's clearly a boost for Baker Mayfield if/when these two hit the field. We wouldn't expect either to suit up for Week 14, but we'll keep an eye on things to see how they'll be deployed if they play before the fantasy season wraps up.

Bucs HC Todd Bowles said “it's a possibility” that Mike Evans could return to practice this week.

The Bucs are slowly getting their weapons back on offense as Godwin was more involved this past week. The team also saw the return of running back Bucky Irving. Evans broke his collarbone in Week 7. Evans' return would put the Bucs at full strength at WR with Egbuka and Godwin forming the team's top-three. Evans' return would also hurt the fantasy value of Johnson and Shepard.

Todd Bowles on Bucky Irving’s usage Sunday: "We'll put him in. Once he gets in, we'll see how he is rolling, and then between him, Rachaad White and Sean Tucker, we'll kind of go with the hot hand."

We'd like to say Bucky Irving will return to his typical 25-opportunity upside, but it was mentioned that he may be eased in, as the team did with Chris Godwin. If that's the case, he's closer to a low-end RB2 than a locked-in RB1 like we came into the season hoping. Tucker and White are more desperation-FLEX options.

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.

Coach Todd Bowles says Baker Mayfield looked good today and trending to start vs. Cardinals.

Related Players: Teddy Bridgewater

Mayfield looked well on his way to an inactive designation this weekend, but things have flipped for the better over the course of the week. If he does end up seeing the field, he's in fringe QB1/2 range against a good Arizona defense.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield was listed as a non-participant in today’s practice due to his sprained AC joint while RB Bucky Irving was listed as a full participant.

The Bucs kept the passing offense pretty dang conservative with Bridgewater in last week, so we wouldn't expect him to be much more than a lower-end QB2, even with a full game to work.

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