The Atlanta Falcons are going to have some strong representation in the 2026 NFL Top 100 with their talent. Despite missing the playoffs in 2025, they have a lot of the players necessary to be a competitive roster, but are looking for the quarterback play to help lead them. One of their superstar players has found his spot on the NFL Top 100 list, but who was it?

The Atlanta Falcons have some outstanding skill position talent, and one of their players found their way on the 2026 NFL Top 100. NFL’s Bobby Kownack wrote a blurb about the newest member of the list, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London. He jumped 31 spots to 66th on this year’s list. Below is what Kownack wrote:
“Atlanta’s quarterback carousel has been spinning since London joined the team in 2022, but it’s made little difference for the budding star. London has delivered 65-plus catches and 850-plus receiving yards in all four of his NFL seasons. He managed his second-best career output last year in touchdowns and receiving yards despite missing five games, as a Week 11 knee injury likely thwarted a long-awaited first Pro Bowl bid. For now, London will have to settle for his continued ascent up the NFL Top 100 in his second straight appearance on the list. His recent four-year, $141 million extension probably doesn’t hurt either. “
Drake London had a good season in 2025 despite some quarterback question marks. He finished with 68 receptions on 112 targets for 919 yards (13.5 yards per catch) with seven touchdown grabs. With running back Bijan Robinson and tight end Kyle Pitts on the roster, they have some elite skill position talent.
Below are the players who have been named to the 2026 NFL Top 100 list so far this week:
70: Green Bay Packers S Xavier McKinney
69: Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson
68: Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton
67: Miami Dolphins LB Jordyn Brooks
66: Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London
The 2026 NFL Top 100 list is voted on by the players throughout the 2025 season. Each weekday on X, two names will be revealed at 10 and 11 am ET until we reach the top 10 players remaining. At that point, one name will be revealed each weekday until all 100 names are announced on Friday, Sept. 4. It will be intriguing to see how many other players take a leap as large as Drake London did on the 2026 NFL Top 100.
