Overview

  • Head coach Raheem Morris said he expects London to play Sunday night in Minnesota, while noting it is not a firm guarantee.
  • London practiced Wednesday and was listed as limited after exiting late in Week 1 with a shoulder injury likely suffered on an end-zone play when he landed on his right shoulder.
  • Mooney returned to practice for the first time since his training camp shoulder injury and was limited as the team assesses whether he is game-ready for Week 2.
  • Safety DeMarcco Hellams, a recent injury addition who missed the opener, also practiced on a limited basis and his availability remains in question.
  • The Falcons’ injury report also noted WRs Jamal Agnew (groin) and Casey Washington (concussion) did not practice, with additional DNPs including safety Jordan Fuller (knee) and OL Jack Nelson (calf).
