Falcons expect London (shoulder) to play Sunday

""Drake is ultimately tough, and he is what he is, and we know Drake," Morris said. "I do expect him to play. That's not saying that he [will play], but when you ask me do I expect him to play? Of course. Drake is the ultimate tough guy. When he says he's going to go practice, that tells you a lot.""

"Morris was not as certain about No. 2 wide receiver Darnell Mooney, who has also been out with a shoulder injury. Mooney missed all of training camp after injuring his right shoulder July 24. He returned to practice two weeks ago in limited fashion, but was inactive last Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. "Hard to say," Morris said when asked if London was further along than Mooney. "They're both really tough competitors.""

Raheem Morris expects wide receiver Drake London to be available for Sunday's primetime game against the Minnesota Vikings after London left Week 1 with a shoulder injury and did not return for the final offensive drive. Morris said London will practice Wednesday and does not expect him to miss additional time, though he did not guarantee participation. Morris expressed less certainty about No. 2 receiver Darnell Mooney, who missed training camp with a right shoulder injury on July 24, returned to limited practice two weeks ago, and was inactive last Sunday versus the Buccaneers. London, 24, posted career highs last season in receiving yards (1,271), receptions (100), and receiving touchdowns (9).
