    Fantasy Implications of London’s Injury

    The starting quarterback and top wide receiver for the Falcons both suffered injuries against the Titans on Sunday. After a very slow start to the season, London has started to see consistent involvement in the passing game over the last month.

    Since London posted 55 yards receiving against the Titans prior to his injury, this marks the fourth straight game where London has caught 5+ passes for 50+ yards receiving.

    If London misses any time in the coming weeks, look for Kyle Pitts, Jonnu Smith, KhaDarel Hodge, Van Jefferson, and Mack Hollins to potentially soak some of London’s weekly volume in the passing game.
