Falcons cornerback Mike Hughes is out but top wide receiver Drake London may return at Arizona
Falcons cornerback Mike Hughes will miss the Week 16 game with an ankle sprain; wide receiver Drake London is day-to-day and may return after a knee injury.
- FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — Atlanta Falcons cornerback Mike Hughes will miss Sunday’s game at Arizona with an ankle sprain sustained in the first quarter of Thursday’s 29-28 win at Tampa Bay.
- Hughesʼs exit forced the Falcons to rely on undrafted rookie Cobee Bryant, who played 51 snaps and recorded a pass deflection and five tackles including one for a loss.
- Statistically, Hughes has allowed 40 catches and recorded 51 tackles, an interception, two tackles for loss, and seven passes defended this year.
- The rookie may receive an extended look versus Arizona, and Falcons cornerbacks drew six of the franchise-record 19 penalties against Tampa Bay, complicating personnel decisions involving C.J. Henderson or Keith Taylor.
- Morris said London remains day‑to‑day and will be evaluated in Wednesday and Thursday practices; London leads the Falcons with 810 yards and six touchdowns despite nine games.
