News about Drake London

Falcons receiver Drake London regrets the gun-themed celebration he performed on Monday against the Eagles after tying the game with a late touchdown. After reeling in a seven-yard pass from Kirk Cousins, London pretended to shoot a gun into the stands at Lincoln Financial Field - which earned him an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and made it so Younghoe Koo's game-winning extra point was a 48-yarder. Speaking to ESPN back at the Falcons' facility, London admitted he 'kind of lost myself' in the moment and will likely be retiring the celebration.

Drake London appeared to silence the partisan crowd at Lincoln Financial Field in an instant late on Monday night with his game-winning touchdown grab for the Falcons against the Eagles. About 10 rows up from the field in the section nearest where London caught Kirk Cousins' pass sat girlfriend Sofia Gabay, who witnessed the deafening silence in Philadelphia. Gabay marked the massive occasion from her boyfriend with a tribute on Instagram moments after the 22-21 win was finalized.

Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. has been selected eighth overall by the Atlanta Falcons. Penix Jr., the 2023 Heisman Trophy runner-up, led the Huskies to the national championship game last season before they fell to Michigan. He'll now team up with the likes of Bijan Robinson and Drake London to begin his pro career.

Kirk Cousins has agreed to a four-year, $180 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons. The 35-year-old has been with Minnesota since 2018, marking a new era for both the Falcons and the Vikings. Mike McCartney, Cousins' rep, announced the news on social media on Monday. 'Excited for @KirkCousins8's re-signing of a four-year contract with the @Atlanta Falcons,' he posted.'

During the UFC middleweight title match between Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira, the multi-award winning rapper continued his streak of extravagant bets on sporting events by stakeing stakes worth close to £725,000 ($900,000.000) per month. Adesanya recovered the 185lb crown just months after losing it to his fierce adversary Pereira as the Brazilians stunned at UFC 281 in November 2022. In the early hours of Sunday morning, the 36-year-old had two separate bets worth over £323,000 ($400,000) per se, with Adesanya winning and Adesanya losing by knockout.

Drake, the multi-award winning musician, is best known for his hit songs, but he has developed a bit of a gambling addiction alongside his rapping exploits. The Canadian rapper has earned a following among his hundreds of millions of Facebook followers. Drake has covered a wide variety of sports, from boxing to NFL, UFC, basketball, football, and even Formula 1, beginning with Stake, which he started under the name DeepPockets6 in December 2021. Drake has raked in millions at times, but he has also portrayed the artist as bringing a curse on those who support him.
