Who Should I Start? Calvin Ridley or Drake London

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (hamstring) was unable to practice on Wednesday. Ridley continues to deal with a lingering hamstring issue that he suffered during the Week 6 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. He sat out in Week 7 and is missing practice to begin the week here. Fantasy managers will need to continue monitoring his status throughout the week. If Ridley sits again, Elic Ayomanor and Van Jefferson figure to start against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 8. Also, Chimere Dike is a sleeper player to see more work after hauling in four receptions for 70 yards and a touchdown last week.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London had a quiet game in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the 49ers, registering four grabs for a scoreless 42 yards. Though the final line wasn't impressive, he did still draw 10 targets from Michael Penix Jr., and it marked the third straight game in which the 24-year-old recorded double-digit targets. All those looks add up to a 32.0 percent target share, the third-highest total in the league, and the fourth-year pro owns 40.1 percent of the team's air yards, good for fourth-best in the NFL. With that type of usage, the 6-foot-4 wideout is a reliable WR1 on a weekly basis, and Week 8 will be no different. The Falcons take on the Dolphins in a home matchup this Sunday, a defense that has allowed 29.3 points per game, fourth-most thus far in 2025, although they've been much more generous to opposing ground attacks than through the air. Even so, London should see his fair share of targets in a game that the Falcons will be heavily favored.
