""It was a good route. Good coverage," Gonzalez said. "It's two big-time players going to fight for the ball. He came down with it, but I'm glad we got the win ... I just landed and hit my head and we've got to be careful with that, but I'm good.""
""He's a talented receiver, like a lot of receivers in our league," Gonzalez said. "We had our battle. He won a couple, I won a couple. That's the nature of this position, you've just got to make plays. They're going to make catches. They get paid too. I'm just glad we won.""
""Yeah, I would have came back in but the offense did what they had to do, got a first down, and we didn't have to go back on the field," said Gonzalez."
Christian Gonzalez exited in the fourth quarter after hitting his head while contesting a 40-yard catch by Drake London. He underwent concussion protocol and was cleared to return but did not re-enter because the Patriots ran out the clock on the final drive. The injury occurred as London hauled in the pass and both players wrestled for the ball while landing. Drake London finished with nine catches for 118 yards and three touchdowns, with the 40-yarder his longest play of the day. The Patriots secured a one-point win when the Falcons missed an extra point.
