ATLANTA — The Atlanta Falcons have made a final decision on Drake London after listing the wide receiver questionable ahead of the team’s ‘Monday Night Football’ game against the Los Angeles Rams. He is active for Atlanta for the second week in a row after missing four games with a sprained PCL in his knee.
With London active, fellow receivers Casey Washington and Malik Heath are inactive for the Falcons. This is Washington’s sixth game as a healthy scratch.
The Falcons ruled out starting cornerback Mike Hughes earlier in the week as he continues to work back from an ankle injury. Which player steps up in his absence will be something to monitor. Undrafted rookie Cobee Bryant got the start last week against the Arizona Cardinals, but C.J. Henderson took the most snaps at Hughes’ vacated spot. Henderson put the game on ice with an interception late in the fourth quarter of that win.
In other inactives news, the Falcons announced earlier on Monday that inside linebacker Josh Woods was downgraded to out as he attends to a personal matter.
