The Falcons are likely to be without their top receiver this Sunday as they head to MetLife Stadium to take on the Jets.

London is having a fantastic season. He has gone over 100 receiving yards in five of his last six games. He did, however, miss Atlanta’s Week 12 win over the New Orleans Saints with a knee injury. It seems like it hasn’t healed sufficiently for him to return against the Jets.

The Falcons don’t have much at the wide receiver position with London out. Darnell Mooney is the only other player at the position for Atlanta with over 100 receiving yards on the year.

They do have other legitimate targets in the passing game, though. Tight end Kyle Pitts and running back Bijan Robinson have been the top two options after London. With him likely out, there will be a lot of responsibility for Jets linebackers and safeties to hold up in coverage.
