Rotowire
Drummond reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Drummond was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins, failing to record any stats while playing six snaps on offense. The wide receiver ranked fourth in snaps at his position behind David Sills (45), Darnell Mooney (45) and KhaDarel Hodge (33).

Falcons' Dylan Drummond: Bumps up to active roster
Rotowire
The Falcons elevated Drummond from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Drummond opted to stick around in Atlanta as a member of the practice squad after failing to make the team's 53-man roster at the end of training camp. Week 8 will be his first elevation of the season, and he would give the Falcons an extra body on special teams and depth at wide receiver if Drake London (hip) is not cleared to play against the Dolphins on Sunday.

Falcons' Dylan Drummond: Busy day in preseason opener
Rotowire
Drummond caught all eight of his targets for 63 yards during Friday's 17-10 preseason loss to the Lions.
Drummond spent the entire 2024 campaign on the Falcons' practice squad, and the familiarity paid off, as he had a big performance in the preseason opener. However, he hasn't played in an NFL regular-season game since 2023 with the Lions, and there's stiff competition for the final wideout spots behind the returning top guys: Drake London, Darnell Mooney (shoulder), Ray-Ray McCloud and KhaDarel Hodge. Given Jamal Agnew's return abilities, he'll likely take the fifth spot, leaving Drummond to compete with Casey Washington, DJ Chark, David Sills and Chris Blair for potentially only one spot.
