Falcons' Dylan Drummond: Held without a catch Week 15
Drummond was not targeted during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.
Drummond wasn't officially recorded as finishing with a target, though Kirk Cousins did look his way on an attempted two-point conversion in the fourth quarter. He'll reprise a similar depth role at wide receiver in Week 16 against the Cardinals.

Falcons' Charlie Woerner: Two grabs vs. Tampa Bay
Woerner caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Thursday night's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.
Woerner wasn't targeted in either of the Falcons' last two games, but he finished with the fifth-most receiving yards on the team during Thursday night's win. The 28-year-old has appeared in all 14 of Atlanta's contests this season, catching seven of eight targets for 45 yards across 417 offensive snaps. He's expected to remain a depth option in the team's tight-end corps in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Makes three catches vs. Buccaneers
Mooney secured three of six targets for 35 yards during Thursday's 29-28 win over Tampa Bay.
Mooney played 92 offensive snaps with Drake London (knee) sidelined again, but he was outpaced in the receiving game by all of Kyle Pitts (11-166-3), Bijan Robinson (8-82-0) and David Sills (6-78-0). Across 12 regular-season appearances so far, Mooney has surpassed 50 receiving yards on just two occasions. He'll remain difficult to trust for fantasy purposes Week 16 on the road against Arizona, even if London is unavailable again.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Little involvement in win over Bucs
Allgeier carried the ball twice for 18 yards during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.
Allgeier had logged eight or more carries in four of his last five appearances heading into Week 15, but he played just 17 percent of the offensive snaps versus Tampa Bay, his lowest share since Week 3. He'll look to get more involved behind Bijan Robinson again in Week 16, when the Falcons will travel to Arizona on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Falcons' David Sills: Career-best effort in win
Sills secured six of 10 targets for 78 yards in the Falcons' 29-28 win over the Buccaneers on Thursday night.
Sills finished third across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Falcons on what was a banner night for the air attack, putting together a career-best effort in the process. The veteran West Virginia product continued to play an expanded role due to the absence of Drake London (knee), but Sills could be due for a reduction in opportunity in a Week 16 road matchup against the Cardinals that the former could be ready to suit up for.

Falcons' Kirk Cousins: Throwback effort in upset win
Cousins completed 30 of 44 passes for 373 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the Falcons' 29-28 win over the Buccaneers on Thursday night. He also fumbled once but recovered.
Cousins' what-year-is-this performance was worthy of a double take, considering the veteran signal-caller had looked like he'd regressed considerably in his previous four starts and two in-game cameos prior to Thursday night. He had embarrassed the Buccaneers secondary last season in an unforgettable 509-yard, four-touchdown TNF performance as well, and this latest prolific effort went largely through tight end Kyle Pitts, who was on the receiving end of 11 of Cousins' completions totaling 166 yards and also recorded all three receiving touchdowns on the night. Cousins' performance was all the more noteworthy considering the absence of Drake London (knee), and it certainly brightens the outlook for the Falcons' air attack heading into a Week 16 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Dec. 21 that the talented wideout should have a good chance of being ready for.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Signature performance in upset win
Pitts brought in 11 of 12 targets for 166 yards and three touchdowns in the Falcons' 29-28 win over the Buccaneers on Thursday.
The oft-maligned tight end delivered exactly the type of performance that many assumed would be his standard following his selection with the fourth overall pick back in the 2021 Draft. Pitts set new single-game career highs with all three components of his receiving line, and he recorded his touchdown grabs from eight, 17 and seven yards out. He spectacularly snapped a nine-game TD drought in the process, and after topping out at 70 receiving yards over his first 11 games, the fifth-year pro has now recorded at least 82 such yards in three consecutive contests. Pitts will try to put together a fitting encore against the Cardinals when the Falcons pay a visit to Arizona for a Week 16 matchup on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Falcons' Zane Gonzalez: Comes through with walk-off FG
Gonzalez made his only field-goal attempt and both of his extra-point tries Thursday in a 29-28 Week 15 win over Tampa Bay.
Gonzalez didn't attempt a field goal in the first half but made both of his extra-point tries. The Falcons attempted a two-point conversion on each of their second-half touchdowns, so Gonzalez went almost the entire third and fourth quarters without taking the field. However, Atlanta drove down the field in the final two minutes of game time and called upon Gonzalez for a 43-yard field-goal try with four seconds left on the clock. The veteran kicker converted to give the Falcons the win. Since taking over as the team's kicker Week 10 against Indianapolis, Gonzalez has made 11 of 13 field-goal tries and 10 of 10 PATs.

Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Racks up 175 total yards in win
Robinson rushed 19 times for 93 yards and a touchdown and secured eight of 11 targets for 82 yards in the Falcons' 29-28 win over the Buccaneers on Thursday night.
On a night when the usually moribund Falcons offense sprung to life, Robinson was the unit's most prolific all-around contributor yardage-wise among the non-QB skill-position players, narrowly edging out a terrific performance from Kyle Pitts (11-166-3). Robinson also went in for his sixth rushing touchdown of the season from six yards out in the fourth quarter, and he extended his streak of consecutive games with at least 70 rushing yards to six. Robinson's catch total was also a new season high, while his receiving yardage qualified as his third highest of the campaign. The elite back should be teed up for another heavy workload in an appealing Week 16 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Falcons' Mike Hughes: Hurts ankle during TNF
Hughes is questionable to return to Thursday's Week 15 matchup against Tampa Bay due to an ankle injury, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Hughes was hurt in the first quarter during a Tampa Bay running play. After spending some time in the medical tent, he headed to the locker room to get X-rays. Rookie Cobee Bryant has stepped in at cornerback for Atlanta in Hughes' stead.

Falcons' Brandon Dorlus: Cleared for TNF
Dorlus (groin) is active for Thursday's game against Tampa Bay, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Dorlus was sidelined by a groin injury in Week 14, but he logged limited practices ahead of Thursday's game against Tampa Bay. That will be enough for him to suit up, and he should serve as one of Atlanta's top pass rushers.

Falcons' Jalon Walker: Set to play against Tampa
Walker (quadriceps) is active for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Walker practiced in limited fashion throughout the week after exiting Atlanta's Week 14 loss early due to a quad injury. Even with the short turnaround, Walker will be able to suit up against Tampa Bay and should play around half of the team's defensive snaps.

Falcons' David Onyemata: Cleared for Week 15 matchup
Onyemata (foot) is active for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Onyemata was limited by a foot injury throughout the week, but he was able to practice each day. That's enough for him to suit up in Week 15 against Tampa Bay, and he should play a fairly significant role along Atlanta's defensive line.
