Drake London Value Dependent on Quarterback Competition?

Sunday, August 23, 6:30 PM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London could see his value rise significantly if the team's starting quarterback is Michael Penix Jr. Penix missed most of training camp after tearing his ACL late last season. With Penix out, former Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has handled most first-team reps and has struggled in camp, game action, and joint practices. London has already had a ton of success with Penix under center, catching 91 passes for 1,286 yards and nine touchdowns in 14 games with the third-year quarterback. London's fantasy managers should continue to monitor this quarterback competition, as Penix's connection with the star receiver bodes well for London's fantasy value this season.

Parker Washington is Back at Practice

Sunday, August 23, 5:40 AM

After missing time over the past week, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington (undisclosed) was spotted back at practice on Sunday. While the nature of Washington's injury was never disclosed, it was never treated as a long-term concern, and the fourth-year pro will look to pick up where he left off. With one of the deeper receiver rooms in the league, the hierarchy of Jacksonville's pass-catchers was one of the hotter debates heading into training camp, but by most accounts, Washington has established himself as a favorite target of quarterback Trevor Lawrence. The two developed a chemistry late in 2025 that allowed Washington to finish as the fantasy WR12 over the final nine weeks of the regular season, while Lawrence garnered MVP consideration. Currently being selected as the consensus WR31, the former sixth-round pick could prove to be one of the best values in 2026 drafts.
