Who Should I Start? Michael Gallup or Drake London

The Washington Commanders released wide receiver Michael Gallup on Monday, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Gallup was unable to make Washington's 53-man roster heading into the regular season in his comeback bid after retiring in 2024 shortly after signing with the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old veteran could return to the Commanders on their practice squad, but if he signs with another team for the regular season, he will merely be competing for a spot on the active game-day roster and won't be on the fantasy radar at all. The former third-rounder (81st overall) by the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 out of Colorado State caught 34 of 57 targets for 418 yards and only two touchdowns in 17 games (13 starts) in 2023 in his final year in Dallas. Gallup's best season came in Year 2, when he put up a 66-1,107-6 line on 113 targets in 14 games (12 starts).

Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said Wednesday that he thinks wide receiver Drake London (knee) is "doubtful" to play in his team's Week 13 matchup against the New York Jets, per D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. London suffered a PCL injury in Week 11 that appears likely to sideline him for at least two games. Across nine games this season, the star wideout has recorded 60 catches for 810 yards and six touchdowns on 94 targets. In his absence in Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints, Falcons wideouts David Sills V and Dylan Drummond both saw an increase in playing time. Wide receiver Darnell Mooney and tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. may be the most likely beneficiaries from a target perspective if London remains out against the Jets.
