Drizzy's $100K bet on London turned into a $355K payout. If only the Raptors had won, it would have been a perfect night for the Canadian rapper.

While not ideal by any means, that $355K should help alleviate the sting of the blowout loss. He took to Instagram to show off his winnings, a slight $355,000 for the famed artist reportedly worth $180 million. Alas, the Falcons took a punt on London (no pun intended), a big vertical target who looks poised to try to make up for Calvin Ridley's absence next season.

When healthy, London very well could be the next great Falcons receiver. Atlanta struggled to find any offensive consistency in the red zone in 2021, ranking 24th in scoring percentage. London now will pair with second-year tight end Kyle Pitts to form a red zone tandem that could be unmatched. "I think I just matured in the game. He would've provided the speed and route-running needed in space while London would have won with size. Drake London
