Darnell Mooney Plays Season-High Snaps, Could See Increased Role if London Misses Time
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney played a season-high 61 snaps (92.4%) and drew seven targets in Sunday's Week 11 loss to Carolina, but made little impact, catching three balls for 34 yards. This was his second consecutive game with seven-plus targets and the first time he topped 20 receiving yards since Week 7. Mooney is having a tough year after a 64-reception, 992-yard, five-touchdown season on 106 targets last year, only topping 50 receiving yards once this season. However, if teammate Drake London misses time due to a knee injury sustained in the same game, Mooney would be positioned as Atlanta's top wide receiver, making him a potential Week 12 waiver wire target and a WR4/flex option for the Falcons' upcoming game against New Orleans.
