Falcons' Drake London Apologizes for Gun Gesture During Touchdown Celebration

London's celebration drew criticism due to recent gun violence and resulted in a penalty during the Falcons' win over the Eagles.

Drake London performed a gun gesture after scoring a game-winning touchdown in the Falcons' 22-21 victory over the Eagles on Monday Night Football.
The celebration incurred a 15-yard penalty, but kicker Younghoe Koo successfully converted the longer extra point attempt.
London expressed regret for his actions, acknowledging the insensitivity given the recent shooting at Apalachee High School near the Falcons' headquarters.
Head coach Raheem Morris emphasized the team's sensitivity to gun violence and noted that London had no ill intent with his celebration.
The Falcons had previously honored the Apalachee High School community, which made the gesture particularly controversial.
