News: 1 day agoLondon brought in four of 10 targets for 62 yards in the Falcons' 31-23 loss to the Bears on Sunday. He also recorded a two-point conversion catch.

Spin: London finished second in both receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for the Falcons, while also setting the pace in targets. The star wideout couldn't quite capitalize on a Bears defense that had proven beatable at times over the first five games of the season, and London ultimately equaled his second-lowest catch total of the campaign despite also tying his second-highest target tally. Irrespective of the inefficient performance, London will take a formidable 31-550-0 line on 47 targets into a Week 7 home showdown with the 49ers on Sunday.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: London enters his fifth NFL season with eyes on finishing in the top 15 in fantasy points per game for the third season in a row. The 2022 first-round pick broke out with a 100-1,271-9 receiving line and a fifth-place finish in fantasy points (14th PPG) in 2024. Last season, he missed five games and fell to 19th in fantasy points, but he was actually better on a per-game basis (seventh) and was the top scorer among receivers three times between Weeks 6 and 10. London remains heavily targeted (career 28% share) and sees plenty of work near the goal line (25 end zone targets over the past two seasons). As long as one of Tua Tagovailoa or Michael Penix Jr. can play somewhat competent ball, the 25-year-old London shouldn't have trouble providing fringe-WR1 fantasy production.
