Deven Thompkins Deven Thompkins Signs with active roster Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 5:54 PM The Falcons signed Thompkins to the active roster Saturday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports. Analysis: To make room for the signing, safety DeMarcco Hellams (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve. Thompkins was elevated twice this season, once for Week 6 against the Bills and last Sunday against the Jets. The wide receiver played just nine offensive snaps between the two outings, catching both of his targets for 23 total yards. Like Hellams, the 25-year-old Thompkins is primarily a special teams player and will likely fill that role for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Feleipe Franks Feleipe Franks Past calf issue Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 2:34 PM Franks (calf) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: Franks practiced in a limited capacity Thursday due to a calf injury, but he upgraded to a full go Friday, suggesting he's moved past the issue in time to play Sunday. Now fully healthy, the 27-year-old is expected to contribute on special teams while playing a depth role in Atlanta's tight-end corps in Week 14.
Drake London Drake London Ruled out for Week 14 Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 1:15 PM London has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Seattle, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: London hasn't played or practiced since suffering a PCL sprain Week 11. Falcons coach Raheem Morris said Monday that the wideout had a chance to return for Week 14, but London never even made it back to practice and now faces a short turnaround with Atlanta playing on Thursday in Week 15.
Drake London Drake London Not at practice Friday Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 12:11 PM London (knee) isn't practicing Friday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com. Analysis: Falcons coach Raheem Morris said Monday that London had a chance to play this week, but the wideout still hasn't returned to practice, making him unlikely to play Sunday against Seattle.
Feleipe Franks Feleipe Franks Limited Thursday Thu, Dec 4, 2025, 8:00 PM Franks (calf) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice session, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: The tight end was not listed on Wednesday's report after suffering the injury during Sunday's loss to the Jets. It's unclear if Franks aggravated the injury or if his limited participation was just a precaution, but Atlanta does have one more practice Friday ahead of this Sunday's matchup with Seattle. Franks has played far more on special teams than offense in 2025.
Drake London Drake London No practice yet Thu, Dec 4, 2025, 3:55 PM London (knee) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: On Monday, coach Raheem Morris told McElhaney that London was considered day-to-day and "certainly has a chance to play" Sunday versus the Seahawks. With back-to-back DNPs under his belt to kick off Week 14 prep, though, London has made no noticeable progress in his recovery from the PCL sprain in his left knee that has sidelined him the last two games. His listing on Atlanta's injury report Friday thus will be of keen interest to see if he has a chance to return this weekend, or if the team rules him out again. Darnell Mooney, David Sills and Dylan Drummond would handle most of the WR reps Sunday if London is inactive.
Feleipe Franks Feleipe Franks Won't miss more time Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 7:21 PM Franks was not listed on Wednesday's injury report, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: Franks was forced out of Atlanta's Week 13 loss to the Jets due to a calf injury. He wasn't hampered by the injury in Wednesday's practice, setting him up to play in Week 14 against the Seahawks.
Drake London Drake London Not practicing Wednesday Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 10:58 AM London (knee) won't practice Wednesday, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports. Analysis: Per coach Raheem Morris, London remains day-to-day at this stage, with Morris noting Wednesday that "we will check him out. He'll be doing some running on the side." The wideout thus has two more opportunities to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, but if his PCL issue keeps him sidelined again this weekend, Darnell Mooney and David Sills would be in line to lead the Falcons' Week 14 WR corps, with Dylan Drummond and Deven Thompkins candidates to be elevated from the team's practice squad.
Deven Thompkins Deven Thompkins Back to practice squad Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 8:22 PM Thompkins reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Analysis: Thompkins was elevated to the Falcons' active roster for a second straight game due to the absence of Drake London (knee). Thompkins played just nine of 69 offensive snaps during the Falcons' 27-24 loss to the Jets on Sunday, but he made the most of his limited playing time as he caught both of his targets for 23 yards while adding a five-yard rush. He also played five snaps on special teams and turned three kickoff returns into 63 yards. Thompkins is eligible to be elevated from Atlanta's practice squad once more this season, and that could come as soon as Week 14 against the Seahawks this Sunday if London is not cleared to return.
Drake London Drake London Chance to play Week 14 Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 1:49 PM Coach Raheem Morris said Monday that London (knee) is now considered day-to-day and "certainly has a chance to play" next Sunday against the Seahawks, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: London has missed the previous two games with his sprained PCL, but it sounds like he could be nearing a return to the lineup. The 4-8 Falcons don't have much to play for these days, so rushing London back at less than 100 percent in what's become a lost season doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Morris, however, may be feeling the pressure to get some late-season wins, and London would certainly help the Falcons be competitive. Playing with Kirk Cousins and at less than 100 percent would knock London down the wide receiver rankings in fantasy.
David Sills David Sills Second straight game with TD Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 4:50 PM Sills caught two of four targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets. Analysis: Sills' nine-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter gave him a two-game touchdown streak after the 29-year-old wide receiver hadn't scored in any of his first 25 regular-season NFL games. He has accounted for two of Kirk Cousins' three touchdown passes this season, showing some decent chemistry with the veteran quarterback, but Sills hasn't exceeded 16 receiving yards in a game this season heading into a Week 14 home game against the Seahawks.
Tyler Allgeier Tyler Allgeier Scores eighth rushing TD in loss Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 4:44 PM Allgeier rushed eight times for 20 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets. Analysis: Allgeier scored a one-yard touchdown one play after Bijan Robinson was stopped for no gain. Robinson got a rushing score in the third quarter, but Allgeier still leads the team with eight rushing touchdowns compared to Robinson's five. Allgeier maintains some fantasy value thanks to his goal-line usage, but he's averaging just 28.7 rushing yards per game heading into a Week 14 home game against Seattle's elite run defense.
Darnell Mooney Darnell Mooney Five targets in London's absence Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 4:43 PM Mooney caught two of five targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets. Analysis: Mooney led all Falcons wide receivers in targets but finished third on the team in that category behind Kyle Pitts (eight) and Bijan Robinson (seven) as Atlanta played without top wide receiver Drake London (knee) for a second consecutive game. Mooney had 74 yards and a touchdown in the first game London missed, but that performance was fueled by a 49-yard touchdown catch. If London remains sidelined in Week 14, Mooney would likely remain the de facto top wide receiver for the Falcons against Seattle's talented secondary.
Kyle Pitts Kyle Pitts Leading receiver in loss to Jets Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 4:05 PM Pitts caught seven of eight targets for 82 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets. Analysis: Pitts led the Falcons in targets, catches and receiving yards Sunday as they played without Drake London (knee) for a second consecutive game. If London remains sidelined in Week 14, a few more targets could flow Pitts' way against a Seahawks defense that has struggled to defend tight ends. The 6-foot-6 tight end has secured multiple receptions in every game this season but has only one touchdown.
Kirk Cousins Kirk Cousins Throws for 234 in loss Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 4:01 PM Cousins completed 21 of 33 passes for 234 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets. Analysis: Cousins had only 86 first-half passing yards but led a touchdown drive, capped by a one-yard Tyler Allgeier run, to tie the score at 7-7 with nine seconds left before halftime. Atlanta's first drive of the third quarter was also capped by a rushing score, this time on a five-yard Bijan Robinson run. Cousins then broke a 17-17 tie by connecting with David Sills for a nine-yard touchdown pass with 8:46 remaining in the fourth quarter, but the Jets scored the game's final 10 points to drop Atlanta to 4-8. Despite the slow start, Cousins ultimately exceeded 200 passing yards for the first time this season, but Atlanta's passing game won't offer much fantasy appeal in Week 14 against the Seahawks, especially if top wide receiver Drake London (knee) misses a third consecutive game.
Bijan Robinson Bijan Robinson Nearly 200 yards in loss to Jets Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 3:33 PM Robinson rushed 23 times for 142 yards and a touchdown while catching five of seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets. Analysis: Robinson posted his second-highest total of the season with 193 scrimmage yards. He was stopped for no gain on first-and-goal from the one-yard line late in the first half and watched Tyler Allgeier power in a game-tying one-yard touchdown on the next play. Bijan produced a rushing touchdown of his own with a five-yard scoring run in the third quarter, but it was only his fifth touchdown run of the season compared to Allgeier's eight. Robinson has produced at least 107 scrimmage yards in three consecutive games and in eight of 12 games overall heading into a Week 14 home game against Seattle's stout run defense.
Feleipe Franks Feleipe Franks Doubtful to return Sunday Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 1:11 PM Franks (calf) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Jets, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: The tight end did not record a catch before exiting. Franks has played primarily on special teams this season.
KhaDarel Hodge KhaDarel Hodge Healthy scratch for Week 13 Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 10:56 AM Hodge (coach's decision) is a healthy inactive for Sunday's game against the Jets, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: Though top wideout Drake London (knee) will miss a second straight game, Hodge won't be among Atlanta's five active receivers for Week 13. Hodge had suited up for each of the Falcons' last seven games but held a minimal role on offense, playing single-digit snaps in six of those contests while accruing a 3-31-0 receiving line on nine targets.
Deven Thompkins Deven Thompkins Elevated to active roster Sat, Nov 29, 2025, 5:15 PM The Falcons elevated Thompkins from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus the Jets, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports. Analysis: Thompkins will provide additional depth at receiver as Drake London (knee) is out again. This is the 25-year-old's second appearance of the season, and the team will be able to elevate him just one more time going forward.
Drake London Drake London Officially out again Fri, Nov 28, 2025, 2:08 PM London (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports. Analysis: London hasn't practiced since suffering a PCL injury Week 11, and he's now confirmed to be out for a second straight game. David Sills and Dylan Drummond got most of the WR snaps alongside Darnell Mooney in London's absence last week, with Sills and Mooney both scoring TDs on an afternoon when Kirk Cousins attempted just 23 passes.
