Rotoworld Player News

Zane Gonzalez

ATL Kicker #45

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Zane Gonzalez converted a 43-yard field goal with no time remaining in the Falcons’ Week 15 win over the Buccaneers.

Gonzalez also connected on all of of his extra-point attempts. His 43-yarder with no time remaining just snuck inside of the post to give Atlanta the win. On the year, Gonzalez has made 11 of his 13 attempts, and he’s perfect on all 11 PATs. He’ll square off against the Cardinals in Week 16.
Darnell Mooney

ATL Wide Receiver #1

Darnell Mooney caught 3-of-6 targets for 35 yards in the Falcons’ Week 15 win over the Buccaneers.

Only five players for the Falcons received targets in Week 15, and one of them was something called a Charlie Woerner. Still, Mooney was ineffective again, and he hasn’t “taken advantage” of the absence of Drake London. Mooney shouldn’t be in fantasy lineups going forward, and that includes Week 16 against the Cardinals.
David Sills

ATL Wide Receiver #87

David Sills caught 6-of-10 targets for 78 yards in the Falcons’ Week 15 win over the Buccaneers.

It’s a solid line, but Sills had one of the worst drops of the year on what would have been a long score for the wideout on a deep ball from Kirk Cousins. He did help make up for it with several big plays in the fourth quarter, including a 21-yarder from Cousins on the fourth down on the game-winning drive. Sills is going to see targets as long as Drake London is out, but it’s hard to give him much more than a desperation FLEX designation against the Cards in Week 15.
Bijan Robinson

ATL Running Back #7

Bijan Robinson rushed 19 times for 93 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons’ Week 15 win over the Buccaneers, adding eight catches for 82 yards.

Robinson did lose a fumble on one of his receptions, if you’re looking for a negative. It comes on a night where the Falcons gave Tyler Allgeier just two total carries, and none of them close to the end zone. His touchdown was a walk-in from six yards out, and it gives him six on the season. Obviously, Robinson is an RB1 going forward, and he should see a considerable amount of touches against the Cardinals in Week 15.
Kyle Pitts

ATL Tight End #8

Kyle Pitts caught 11-of-12 targets for 166 yards and three touchdowns in the Falcons’ Week 15 win over the Buccaneers.

Three touchdowns from Kyle Pitts? In this economy? This was a remarkable effort from the tight end in what has been an impressive — if frustrating (until Thursday) because of the lack of scores — campaign. The Buccaneers simply had no answer for him, and the Falcons lack of other competent targets sans Bijan Robinson provided the volume. He’s now up to four scores on the season, and he’ll have a chance to add to that total with Kirk Cousins clearly feeling confident in feeding him as often as possible against the Cardinals in Week 16.
Kirk Cousins

ATL Quarterback #18

Kirk Cousins completed 30-of-46 passes for 373 yards with three touchdown in the Falcons’ 29-28, Week 15 win over the Buccaneers.

Cousins was very fortunate to not lose a fumble in the final drive of the game, but he was able to lead the Falcons to a game-winning field goal with no time left. All three touchdowns were thrown to Kyle Pitts, because of course they were. The veteran was much better than his dismal showing against the Seahawks in Week 14, and for the most part, he’s held his own since taking over as the starter for Atlanta. He’s still a lowend QB2 for Week 16 against the Cardinals.
Mike Hughes

ATL Cornerback #21

Mike Hughes is questionable to return against the Buccaneers in Week 14 with an ankle injury.

Hughes is currently undergoing X-rays, and it seems more likely than not that he won’t be back for the contest. Cobee Bryant will replace Hughes at corner for the time being.
Raheem Morris

ATL Head Coach

Falcons owner Arthur Blank will evaluate the team’s football operations at the end of the year, including head coach Raheem Morris and general manager Terry Fontenot’s roles.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport broke the news before Thursday Night Football, saying Blank had just visited the set. We suspect Rapoport’s sourcing is highly reliable here. The Falcons are currently 4-9. It is possible, both Morris and Fontenot are ousted in early 2026.
Drake London

ATL Wide Receiver #5

Falcons declared WR Drake London, WR Jamal Agnew, ILB JD Bertrand, OL Michael Jerrell, WR Casey Washington, WR Malik Heath and DL Elijah Garcia inactive for Week 15 against the Buccaneers.

Falcons WR Darnell Mooney is, unfortunately, just a dart-throw FLEX option with London sidelined. Mooney has totaled 45-plus receiving yards just twice this season. Falcons TE Kyle Pitts will continue operating as the No. 1 pass catcher. He should be started as a high-end TE1.
Kyle Pitts

ATL Tight End #8

Kyle Pitts (knee) is questionable for Week 15 against the Bucs.

Pitts was listed as limited in practice throughout the week before receiving the questionable designation. He appears to be trending toward playing, but fantasy managers will want to check in on Atlanta’s inactives before setting their lineups. With Drake London already ruled out, Pitts will project for TE1 numbers if he is good to go.
