Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf hauled in five of his seven targets for 55 yards and a touchdown in a 35-25 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Metcalf's score, his fifth of the season, came late in the first half on a two-yard pass from quarterback Aaron Rodgers. He's been a reliable red-zone weapon all year, converting six targets into six catches and three touchdowns inside the 20. While this has boosted his fantasy value, Metcalf's reception totals have been a bit underwhelming for a WR1. He hasn't caught more than five passes in any contest and is averaging fewer than four receptions per game. Still, Metcalf's 17.1 yards per catch rank fifth in the NFL. He should remain efficient and have a good chance of finding the end zone again in Week 9 against the Indianapolis Colts.

Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said on Monday that wide receiver Drake London (hip) will be day-to-day this week, according to Terrin Waack of AtlantaFalcons.com. London was a late addition to last week's injury report with a hip injury and ended up being inactive for the team's upset loss to the visiting Miami Dolphins on Sunday in Week 8. Darnell Mooney was a bust as Atlanta's WR1 with London out, as he caught just one pass on the day. Tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. was the primary beneficiary in the passing game for a Falcons offense that couldn't get anything going with backup quarterback Kirk Cousins running the show, with Michael Penix Jr. (knee) also out. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on London's practice statuses this week, but if he's able to play in Week 9 against the New England Patriots, he should be considered a must-start in fantasy.
