Drake London Listed As Questionable For Week 10

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (hip), who suffered a hip pointer in the Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys, was limited in practice all week and is officially listed as questionable to suit up on Sunday against the division-rival New Orleans Saints in Week 10. London could be a true game-time decision this weekend, but the good news for fantasy managers is we'll know early on Sunday as to whether the 23-year-old will play. If active, he should be put back into starting fantasy lineups as the team's top wideout. If London misses the contest against New Orleans, both Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III will be more attractive flex plays with upside against a Saints defense that just traded top cornerback Marshon Lattimore to the Commanders. In addition to Mooney and McCloud, tight end Kyle Pitts should see more volume as he looks to bounce back from a poor showing in Week 9.

Jets Sign Anders Carlson, Release Riley Patterson

The New York Jets have signed free-agent kicker Anders Carlson to the practice squad and waived kicker Riley Patterson, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Patterson made his New York Jets debut last Thursday against the Houston Texans as No. 1 option Greg Zuerlein (knee) was on Injured Reserve. In that game, Patterson went a perfect 3-for-3 on extra points and did not attempt any field goals. The Jets will now likely turn to Carlson to serve as the starting kicker this weekend when they face the Arizona Cardinals. Carlson spent time in San Francisco earlier this season and went 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-4 on extra points. Fantasy managers in deeper formats could consider Carlson as a streaming option, as the Jets may have ample scoring opportunities this weekend against the Cardinals.

Kyle Pitts Remains Limited Participant On Thursday

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts (hamstring) continued to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, according to Daniel Flick of The Observer. The young tight end was also tending to this injury on Wednesday and could be in danger of missing this weekend's game if he is unable to return to full participation on Friday. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to Friday's injury report, as it may provide some clarity on his status heading into the weekend. Even though Pitts caught just one pass last weekend, he has been one of the most productive tight ends over the past month, averaging a solid 16.1 PPR points per game during Weeks 5 through 8. If Pitts is able to suit up, he should be locked into all lineups as a solid TE1 facing the New Orleans Saints.

Drake London Remains Limited On Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (hip) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice, according to Daniel Flick of Sports Illustrated. London suffered a hip injury during the opening quarter of last Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. Earlier in the week, London was considered day-to-day. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status during Friday's practice, as it will likely provide clarity for his availability for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. If London suits up, he should be viewed as a solid WR1 in all formats. If not, fantasy managers should expect Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III to operate as the top two wideouts in Atlanta.

Kyle Pitts Limited On Wednesday

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. The injury does not seem to be severe and Pitts' participation in any capacity is encouraging. Still, fantasy managers should monitor Pitts' participation throughout the week. Pitts is finally experiencing a breakout season with a quarterback in Kirk Cousins who can get him the ball. He currently sits as the TE7 in PPR formats and has displayed his big play ability all season. Pitts has caught 30 passes for 430 yards and three touchdowns. He is on pace for his most receiving yards since his rookie season and he has already matched his previous career high in touchdown receptions. Pitts should be able to keep his momentum rolling in Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints. He could be in line for even more targets with wide receiver Drake London (hip) battling his own injury.
