The Atlanta Falcons will visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 15. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Drake London.
Is Drake London Playing in Week 15?

Should You Start or Sit London in Week 15?
In Weeks 9-11, London was the third-highest scoring player in the sport. His 82.1 PPR points over that stretch trailed only Josh Allen (90.8) and Christian McCaffrey (87.0), leading the position by 19.2 points (Jaxon Smith-Njigba).
We know he was a star, but there are levels to these things, and he was ascending despite marginal quarterback play.
A knee injury has cost him three consecutive games, though, and we aren’t exactly being loaded with glowing reports about his “not serious” injury. He didn’t practice at all last week, and it’s not as if this team is pushed to bring him back with their postseason hopes gone.
This profiles as one of those easy situations where you simply mirror what the professional franchise does. This would be a brutal spot to return, but with 15 of 31 Kirk Cousins targets going to Kyle Pitts or Bijan Robinson last week in New York, it’s clear that there isn’t a secondary pass catcher to take looks off the plate of London.
He’s a dynasty-building piece, and while there is some risk in trusting him after a multi-week absence whenever it comes, he’s built up enough equity for us to rely on.
