The Atlanta Falcons might not be without wide receiver Drake London for much longer.

However, on Monday, Falcons head coach Raheem Morris provided an injury update on London that leads us to believe he's going to return in Week 14 against the Seattle Seahawks.
Drake London injury update
Morris revealed on Monday that London is now considered day to day with his PCL injury. That is an upgrade from last week, when London was week to week.
Morris added that London "certainly has a chance" to play on Sunday, according to Tori McElhaney of AtlantaFalcons.com.

Any semblance of participation from London would amount to an upgrade from the week prior.
Drake London fantasy football advice
London should immediately be reinserted into lineups upon his return from injury.
Over the first 11 weeks of this season, London ranked as WR3 overall in fantasy points per game, which makes him one of the best starting options at receiver in fantasy football.
However, temper expectations, as London is catching passes from veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins, who is filling in for the injured Michael Penix Jr., who is out for the season due to a torn ACL.
