Falcons' David Sills: Leads Atlanta receivers in Week 17
Rotowire
Sills caught three passes on four targets for 37 yards during the Falcons' 27-24 win over the Rams on Monday.
Sills finished Monday's game leading the Falcons in receiving yards and second in receptions behind Bijan Robinson' five. Sills' production came despite Kirk Cousins throwing for only 126 yards on 13 completions, and with Drake London not looking fully recovered from a knee injury. Sills and the Falcons will wrap up the regular season Sunday at home against the Saints.

Falcons' David Sills: Blanked by Cardinals
Rotowire
Sills failed to reel in his lone target in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Cardinals.
Sills played 32 of the Falcons' 77 offensive snaps Sunday, behind both Darnell Mooney (54) and Drake London (53). Atlanta's No. 3 wideout followed up his career-best effort in Week 15 with a catchless performance in Week 16, his ninth game without a grab in 15 appearances. Sills remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Rams.

Falcons' David Sills: Career-best effort in win
Rotowire
Sills secured six of 10 targets for 78 yards in the Falcons' 29-28 win over the Buccaneers on Thursday night.
Sills finished third across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Falcons on what was a banner night for the air attack, putting together a career-best effort in the process. The veteran West Virginia product continued to play an expanded role due to the absence of Drake London (knee), but Sills could be due for a reduction in opportunity in a Week 16 road matchup against the Cardinals that the former could be ready to suit up for.

Falcons' David Sills: No receptions in loss
Rotowire
Sills failed to reel in any of his four targets in Sunday's 37-9 loss to the Seahawks.
Sills was a nonfactor against Seattle, failing to record a single reception for the eighth time this season. The 29-year-old wideout scored his only two touchdowns of the season in back-to-back weeks prior to Week 14, but he has otherwise been an afterthought in Atlanta's passing attack. Sills played the most offensive snaps (60) of any Falcons' wide receiver Sunday with Drake London (knee) sidelined. Despite his increased playing time, Sills should not be trusted for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 15 matchup against the Buccaneers.

Falcons' David Sills: Second straight game with TD
Rotowire
Sills caught two of four targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets.
Sills' nine-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter gave him a two-game touchdown streak after the 29-year-old wide receiver hadn't scored in any of his first 25 regular-season NFL games. He has accounted for two of Kirk Cousins' three touchdown passes this season, showing some decent chemistry with the veteran quarterback, but Sills hasn't exceeded 16 receiving yards in a game this season heading into a Week 14 home game against the Seahawks.

Falcons' David Sills: Finds end zone in win
Rotowire
Sills caught two of three targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Saints.
Sills' trip to the end zone was his first score of the season. The 29-year-old wideout played 39 of the Falcons' 56 offensive snaps Sunday, the most of any Atlanta wide receiver. Sills' increase in playing time was a result of Drake London (knee) missing the contest due to a PCL sprain in his left knee. If London is forced to miss more time, fantasy managers in deep leagues could consider Sills as an option in a Week 13 matchup against the Jets, though his minimal yardage on limited targets makes him extremely difficult to trust for meaningful fantasy production.

Falcons' David Sills: One catch in loss
Rotowire
Sills caught one of two targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Panthers.
The 29-year-old played 37 of the Falcons' 66 offensive snaps Sunday, operating as the No. 3 wide receiver behind Drake London (knee) and Darnell Mooney. Sills has had an underwhelming 2025 campaign, recording just four catches on nine targets for 34 yards through 10 games. With London considered week-to-week with a sprained PCL, Sills should see an uptick in targets, but fantasy managers would be wise to take a wait-and-see approach with Atlanta's entire passing game, as Kirk Cousins is set to take over as the starting quarterback with Michael Penix (knee) on injured reserve.

Falcons' David Sills: Held catchless against Colts
Rotowire
Sills failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 31-25 loss to the Colts.
Sills played 31 of the Falcons' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, continuing to operate as Atlanta's No. 3 wide receiver behind Drake London (62) and Darnell Mooney (57). The 30-year-old wideout was held without a catch for the second straight game and for the seventh time this season. Sills has only seen seven targets across nine contests, and his limited opportunities keep him far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Panthers.

Falcons' David Sills: Targeted three times in loss
Rotowire
Sills caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.
Sills played 90 percent of the Falcons' offensive snaps Sunday, nearly doubling his next highest snap share this season. The 30-year-old wideout saw an increase in playing time against Miami due to No. 1 wide receiver Drake London missing the contest with a hip injury. Despite the increase in playing time, Sills and the entire Falcons offense couldn't get much going against the Dolphins defense. Sills should not be trusted for fantasy purposes, especially if London is able to make his return for a Week 9 matchup against the Patriots.

Falcons' David Sills: Getting cardio but not targets
Rotowire
Sills didn't record a target across 28 offensive snaps during Sunday's 20-10 loss to the 49ers.
Despite playing 74 offensive snaps over the past three games, Sills hasn't garnered a single target. The only time he's made a dent in the box score came during Week 3, when he caught one of two targets for nine yards across 25 offensive snaps against the Panthers.

Falcons' David Sills: Catches first pass since 2022
Rotowire
Sills caught one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's 30-0 loss to the Panthers.
After playing only five offensive snaps through Atlanta's first two games, Sills saw extended action during Sunday's blowout and caught his first pass since 2022, when he was with the Giants. As long as Jamal Agnew (groin) and Casey Washington (concussion) are sidelined, Sills will be the No. 5 wideout behind Drake London, Darnell Mooney, Ray-Ray McCloud and KhaDarel Hodge.

Falcons' David Sills: Joins active roster
Rotowire
Sills signed with the Falcons' active roster Saturday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.
Sills was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for the Falcons' Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers, playing two offensive snaps and failing to record a stat. Now that he's signed to the active roster, the 29-year-old is expected to play a depth role in Atlanta's wide receiver corps in the Week 2 matchup against the Vikings. In a corresponding move, Jordan Fuller (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

David Sills: Reverts to practice squad
Rotowire
Sills reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Sills was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Buccaneers, failing to record any stats while playing two offensive snaps. With Darnell Mooney (shoulder) banged up and both Drake London (shoulder) and Jamal Agnew (groin) suffering injuries in the opener, it's possible that Sills is elevated again in Week 2 versus the Vikings.

Falcons' David Sills: Sees two snaps in opener
Rotowire
Sills played two offensive snaps during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Buccaneers.
Sills initially made the Falcons' first 53-man roster but was cut a week later. Atlanta then re-signed him to the practice squad and elevated him for the regular-season opener due to Darnell Mooney (shoulder) being inactive. However, Sills was still a non-factor offensively. Drake London (shoulder) and Jamal Agnew (groin) suffered injuries during the opener, so Sills could be elevated again in Week 2 if Atlanta's wideout room isn't at full strength.

Falcons' David Sills: Catches pass in preseason opener
Rotowire
Sills caught one of two targets for 15 yards during Friday's 17-10 preseason loss to the Lions.
The undrafted wideout out of West Virginia hasn't played a regular-season game in the NFL since 2023. There's a lot of competition for the final wideout spots behind Drake London, Darnell Mooney, Ray-Ray McCloud and KhaDarel Hodge. Given Jamal Agnew's return abilities, he'll likely take the fifth spot, leaving Sills to compete with Casey Washington, DJ Chark, Dylan Drummond and Chris Blair for potentially only one spot.

Falcons' David Sills: Headed to Atlanta
Rotowire
The Falcons signed Sills to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Sills spent the entire 2024 season on the Broncos' practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp in late August, but he didn't play in the regular season despite being elevated for Week 17 against the Bengals. Sills last saw NFL regular-season action in 2023 with the Giants, during which he played 16 snaps across three games but did not show up in the box score otherwise. The 28-year-old wideout out of West Virginia will take his talents to Atlanta, where he will have a chance to make the Falcons' 53-man roster for the 2025 campaign.

Rotowire
Sills was released by the Broncos on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.
Sills spent the 2023 campaign with Denver, failing to garner a target while appearing in three games with the team. The wide receiver compiled 53 receiving yards on four catches during the preseason and he'll now look for another opportunity elsewhere.
