Falcons No. 1 receiver Drake London is scheduled to undergo tests to determined the severity of his right shoulder injury, but head coach Raheem Morris had no additional details following Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers.

London landed hard on his right shoulder in the end zone attempting to secure a touchdown pass from Michael Penix Jr. The Falcons initially believed it was ruled a touchdown before it was ruled incomplete, with the call standing after an instant-replay review.

London was targeted 15 times before leaving the game with eight receptions for 55 yards. His longest gain was 12 yards.

The Falcons played without wide receiver Darnell Mooney, who was ruled out with a shoulder injury that limited him most of training camp. The Falcons confirmed Mooney would miss multiple weeks at the outset of training camp because of the injury.

London caught 100 passes for 1,271 yards with nine touchdowns last season.
