FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) — Atlanta Falcons rookie receiver Drake London will likely be held out of practice this week because of a right knee injury, but the No. 8 overall pick isn't expected to miss significant time.
London was injured in the Falcons' preseason opener at Detroit, going out on the first series after catching a 24-yard pass.
Coach Arthur Smith said Sunday that London wasn't likely to practice this week, including joint workouts with the New York Jets ahead of an Aug. 22 preseason game at the Meadowlands.
“We hope to get everybody back healthy, ready to roll when the season rolls around," Smith said.
