Drake London Resumes Practice Sessions
Drake London has resumed practice sessions for the first time since early November. The Atlanta Falcons wide receiver participated in limited capacity after sidelining himself for four games due to a PCL knee sprain. Head coach Raheem Morris expressed optimism about London’s recovery and stated that the team will assess his readiness for the upcoming match against the Arizona Cardinals.
Drake London’s Recovery Progress
Morris highlighted London’s positive attitude during practice, saying, “He seems to be in positive spirits.” This week’s evaluations will determine if London can contribute against Arizona.
Kyle Pitts’ Rising Performance
During London’s absence, tight end Kyle Pitts emerged as a key player. He earned the title of NFC Offensive Player of the Week following a remarkable performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Pitts recorded:
- 73 receptions
- 797 yards
- 4 touchdowns
Notably, in the last three games without London, Pitts has tallied 24 catches, 383 receiving yards, and three touchdowns. The dynamics of the Falcons’ offense may shift upon London’s return, making it essential to monitor how this could affect Pitts’ productivity.
Additional Injury Updates
In other news, the Falcons will be without starting cornerback Mike Hughes, who sustained an ankle injury during the recent victory over Tampa Bay. This situation may provide rookie Cobee Bryant an opportunity for increased playing time in the upcoming games.
