HC won't say when London will return

When asked Monday if rookie WR Drake London will be ready for the regular-season opener, Falcons HC Arthur Smith said, "I feel good about where he's at, but I'm not going to make a prediction," according to D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. London hasn't practiced since Aug. 12 because of a knee issue. It sounds like we'll have to wait until next week's practices leading up to the opener to find out whether London will play Week 1. Even if he's ready to go, it would be risky to toss the rookie into opening-week lineups. He still presents plenty of full-season fantasy football upside from his WR4-level ADP, though.
