London Returns: Fantasy Star Ready for Week 17 Bounce Back
25 Dec
Summary
- Drake London returned from injury in Week 16 with modest stats.
- He played 69 percent of snaps, showing significant involvement.
- Rams defense is vulnerable to opposing receivers in recent games.
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London saw his first action since Week 11 in the team's Week 16 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Returning from a four-game absence due to a knee injury, London recorded three receptions for 27 yards on eight targets, a performance that suggests he may still be shaking off rust.
Despite the statistical output, London's playing time was substantial, as he participated in 69 percent of the team's offensive snaps. This level of involvement, even with targets distributed to Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts, indicates his importance to the Falcons' offense. His return to form is anticipated for Week 17.
The upcoming opponent, the Los Angeles Rams, presents a favorable matchup. They rank ninth in the league for fantasy points conceded to opposing wide receivers. Several receivers have achieved notable fantasy scores against the Rams in recent weeks, fueling optimism for London's potential to return to his pre-injury production levels.
