Rest-of-Season Outlook and Availability
Outlook
The volume travels regardless of who lines up under center, with Tagovailoa now pushing Penix and London entrenched as the unquestioned focal point. Drafters are paying up around the WR7 range and a top-20 overall slot, which is fair for a player carrying a near-30% air-yards share. Health is the only real variable; the usage and efficiency are already WR1-caliber when he's on the field. Full outlook

We projected London in the WR7 range this summer. Through 3 games he's WR20 at 14.3 PPR points per game, against 16.8 over 12 games last season (WR19). He's running behind last season's pace.
Last season he ranked 16th of 142 in target volume (21.6% target share), 22nd of 142 in downfield role (29.3% air-yards share) and 14th of 142 in efficiency (2.41 yards per route run). His points come from his efficiency. Cooper Rush is his quarterback.
The next favorable matchup is the Ravens in Week 5 (6th against WRs).

Even in an injury-shortened 2025, London soaked up a 21.6% target share and ran 0.294 targets per route, posting a 0.212 EPA per play and a 53.6% success rate across 12 games. The fuller picture is the 2024 ceiling: 158 looks, a 29.3% target share, 0.71 WOPR and nine scores while finishing the WR4 in advanced rank. He buys you 15 red-zone targets in a partial season and barely drops anything, with a 0.9% drop rate on 69 catchable balls.
The volume travels regardless of who lines up under center, with Tagovailoa now pushing Penix and London entrenched as the unquestioned focal point. Drafters are paying up around the WR7 range and a top-20 overall slot, which is fair for a player carrying a near-30% air-yards share. Health is the only real variable; the usage and efficiency are already WR1-caliber when he's on the field.
