Drake London has a hip injury and is now questionable versus the Miami Dolphins.
Fantasy managers got some unfortunate news that Drake London is now questionable with a hip injury and is in danger of missing a cake matchup versus the Dolphins. After an 8.2 fantasy point performance Week 7 against the 49ers, London will be in a great spot to rebound should he play Sunday.
Darnell Mooney and Kyle Pitts will be sneaky winners should London miss. With Kirk Cousins getting the start in place of an injured Michael Penix Jr., the Falcons will logically feed Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. The Dolphins defense is dead last against the run. Fire up all active Falcons this week versus the Dolphins.

The Atlanta Falcons ran all over the Vikings, led by star running back Bijan Robinson.
The Atlanta Falcons came out running all over the Minnesota Vikings, winning 22-6. Led by star running back Bijan Robinson who dominated with 143 rushing yards on 22 carries and added 3 catches for 25 yards. Backup running back Tyler Allgeier had 76 rushing yards on 16 carries with a vulture touchdown along with 1 catch for 4 yards. The Falcons won this game on the back of their running game and their defense. Atlanta looks like a contender to compete with the Buccaneers for the NFC South division.
Bijan Robinson is a consensus top 5 running back in fantasy, he is a must start every week. The Falcons are very reliable for fantasy production in the running game, as backup Tyler Allgeier is a viable option should you be tight on running back depth. Allgeier is a very valuable handcuff back to have on hand in case Bijan goes down.

Falcons running back Bijan Robinson is set to have better numbers this upcoming season for Fantasy.
Bijan Robinson is set for a major breakout in 2025, with the Falcons publicly emphasizing their intention to feature him more heavily in the offense. Head coach Raheem Morris and offensive coordinator Zac Robinson have both expressed a desire to unleash Robinson’s full potential as a dual-threat weapon.
After a solid rookie campaign with 1,463 total yards and 8 touchdowns and finishing as RB 9. He followed that up with an even more impress season having over 1,400 yards rushing with 14 touchdowns on the ground all while catching 61 passes for 431 yards and a score making him finish as RB 3. This season the team is expected to take on a larger workload in both the run and pass game.
Robinson is a legitimate top 5 fantasy RB candidate with overall RB 1 upside in PPR formats. With an improved offensive system and a clear commitment to making him the focal point, he’s worth an early first round pick this coming season. Expect a big leap in usage, scoring opportunities, and consistency in 2025.

The Falcons trio of Michael Penix Jr., Drake London, and Bijan Robinson will have fantasy gamers rejoicing for the foreseeable future.
Having a 36 year old quarterback sure can make a team look older than it is. The Falcons struggled through Kirk Cousins not being able to fully recover from his Achilles injury in 2025.
The Falcons made the switch to rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. for the final 3 games of the 2024 season. Fantasy gamers got a glimpse of what the future holds for the Falcons. In a shootout with the Carolina Panthers, Michael Penix Jr., Drake London, and Bijan Robinson all had monster performances. It was the first time in NFL history that a team had a 300-yard passer, 175-yard receiver, and 150-yard rusher with all three players being under the age of 25.
In 2025 drafts, expect Bijan Robinson to be drafted early in the first round. Drake London will be tough to keep out of round 1 after his 40.7 point outburst. Michael Penix Jr. will be a sensical and easy selection to complete Falcons stacks in best ball. Despite the non-linear route it took to get here, there is plenty of reason to be optimistic in fantasy football for Falcons players.

Bijan Robinson is the RB-2 for week 17 heading into Monday Night Football.
Bijan Robinson has given fantasy managers much to be delighted about in 2024. Entering week 17, Bijan was the RB-3 on the season.
Bijan Robinson had 17 carries in week 17 against the Washington Commanders. His 90 yards were boosted by 2 touchdowns on the ground. Bijan added a paltry 3 receptions for 8 yards in the receiving game. Bijan’s 24.8 fantasy points make him the RB-2 on the week with Monday Night Football’s contest between the Lions and 49ers remaining.
While Tyler Allgeier takes more series than Bijan managers would like, there is plenty of optimism entering year 3. Bijan will be in his age 23 season and has not had significant injuries to date in his NFL career. He is ranked 5th in carries (259) and targets (62). This has yielded Bijan being 5th in rushing and receiving yards respectively. His 19.0 fantasy points per game is ranked 4th at the running back position.
In 2025, Bijan will safely be a first round pick on UnderDog drafts for Best Ball and is a bonafide top tier running back that is coveted in Dynasty leagues.

Amid struggles of quarterback Kirk Cousins, the Atlanta Falcons are making a change to Michael Penix Jr. as their starting quarterback.
The Atlanta Falcons are making a big change at quarterback. With Kirk Cousins struggling to move the ball and complete passes to his own teammates, the Falcons announced they will be starting rookie Michael Penix Jr. in week 16 versus the New York Giants.
Michael Penix Jr. was drafted 8th overall in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. At the time, the move was met with curiosity and plenty of raised eyebrows. After securing Kirk Cousins with a 4-year, $180 million contract the Falcons front office was met with plenty of incredulity.
Michael Penix will provide an instant boost to the passing game. His cannon of a left arm will give life to Drake London, Darnell Mooney, and hopefully resuscitate tight end Kyle Pitts. Kirk Cousins showed in recent weeks that he was unable to drive through is lower body to add zip to his passes. This will not be a problem for Michael Penix.
The Falcons offense will get a massive boost. Penix’s ability to sling the football will make life easier for Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier out of the backfield. Fire up all Falcons in week 16 versus the Giants.
