Falcons WR Drake London Suffers Shoulder Injury vs Buccaneers

The Atlanta Falcons narrowly lost their Week 1 game to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 23-20, with wide receiver Drake London sustaining a shoulder injury late in the contest. London, who had eight receptions for 55 yards, was injured while attempting to catch a touchdown pass that was ultimately overturned, causing him to leave the game and miss a critical final drive. Despite the injury, London played through the first half but was sidelined on the Falcons' last possession, which ended in a missed field goal. His status remains uncertain ahead of the Week 2 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, with the team monitoring the severity of the shoulder injury. London is a key player for the Falcons, coming off a career-best 2024 season with 100 receptions, 1,271 yards, and nine touchdowns. Head coach Raheem Morris has not provided an update on London's condition, leaving his availability for the next game in question.
