Drake London Injury Update
London is now set to miss his fourth straight game after being ruled out for Thursday Night Football against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The star wideout was originally labeled as day-to-day, but his timeline to return is up in the air as of now.

The short week made it unlikely for London to play, and in a lost season with a tricky PCL injury, there's a non-zero chance that Atlanta opts to shut him down with only three games left after Thursday night. The Falcons have little to play for after being eliminated from playoff contention, and it wouldn't make much sense to rush London back before he is ready.
Drake London Fantasy Football Outlook
It's frustrating news for London's fantasy managers as he was in the midst of a truly dominant season. The 24-year-old wideout was on pace to blow past his career year marks set last season, collecting 60 receptions for 810 yards and six touchdowns on 94 targets in nine games this season.

Those numbers translated to a 17-game pace of 113 receptions, 1,530 receiving yards, and 11 touchdowns on 178 targets. The only wide receivers to put up those marks in a season over the last five years are Ja'Marr Chase, CeeDee Lamb, Tyreek Hill, Cooper Kupp, and Davante Adams.
London was one of just two wide receivers to have multiple weekly finishes as the overall WR1 and ranked as the WR4 in PPR points per game with 19.7. Hopefully, the star receiver can return within the next two weeks for fantasy managers still battling in the fantasy playoffs.
For now, his status will continue to be monitored. The mini-bye week should give him extra time to rest and recover ahead of a potential return in Week 16 against the Arizona Cardinals.
