Second straight game with TD
Sills caught two of four targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: 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.

Finds end zone in win
Sills caught two of three targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Saints.
Analysis: 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…read more

One catch in loss
Sills caught one of two targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: 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…read more

Held catchless against Colts
Sills failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 31-25 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: 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.

Clear No. 3 wideout
Sills failed to catch his only target during Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Once again, Sills operated as the Falcons' No. 3 wideout, playing 37 more offensive snaps than KhaDarel Hodge and Dylan Drummond. However, despite playing at least 30 offensive snaps in four straight games following Atlanta's Week 5 bye, Sills has totaled only two catches on four targets for 14 yards during that stretch.

Targeted three times in loss
Sills caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: 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…read more

Getting cardio but not targets
Sills didn't record a target across 28 offensive snaps during Sunday's 20-10 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: 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.

Catches first pass since 2022
Sills caught one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's 30-0 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: 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.

Joins active roster
Sills signed with the Falcons' active roster Saturday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: 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.

Sills reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: 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.

Sees two snaps in opener
Sills played two offensive snaps during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: 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.

Sills was signed to the Falcons' practice squad Saturday, then elevated for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Atlanta cut Sills on Friday but then re-signed him to the practice squad a day later. With Darnell Mooney (shoulder) questionable, Sills should provide insurance to the team's wide receiver corps.

Finds spot on initial 53-man roster
Sills made the Falcons' initial 53-man roster Tuesday.
Analysis: The wideout room was competitive during training camp, and despite strong showings, the Falcons cut Chris Blair, Dylan Drummond and Nick Nash. That leaves Sills and Casey Washington as the final two WRs behind Drake London, Darnell Mooney (shoulder), Ray-Ray McCloud, KhaDarel Hodge and Jamal Agnew (oblique). With Mooney and Agnew banged up, it's possible Sills will see a few offensive snaps in Week 1. He hasn't caught a pass in the NFL since 2022, when he set career highs (11 catches on 17…read more

Catches pass in preseason opener
Sills caught one of two targets for 15 yards during Friday's 17-10 preseason loss to the Lions.
Analysis: 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.

Analysis: 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.

Top receiver in preseason finale
Sills caught six of nine targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's exhibition loss to the Jets.
Analysis: The Giants sat out most of their starters in the contest, giving Sills ample opportunity to make a final case for a roster spot. He performed well, leading the team in targets, catches and yards while hauling in the only receiving TD on a 30-yard heave from Tommy DeVito with less than a minute left in the game. Despite the standout performance, Sills remains a long shot for a spot on the initial 53-man roster given the Giants' crowded receiver room.

The soon-to-be 27-year-old appeared in nine games for the Giants last season, making 11 catches on 17 targets for 106 yards. He's expected to be fighting for a depth role in the Giants' receiving corps, which added Parris Campbell, Jeff Smith and Jamison Crowder in free agency, while also adding Jalin Hyatt in the third round of the 2023 Draft.

Analysis: After he was a healthy inactive for three consecutive games, Sills dressed for the Giants' 20-20 tie with the Commanders a week ago, but he played just one snap during that contest.

Unproductive again in Week 8
Sills caught one of two targets for five yards Sunday in a loss to Seattle.
Analysis: Sills' lone catch in the contest came early in the third quarter during a drive that ended with a Graham Gano field goal. Since playing 91 percent of New York's offensive snaps and finishing with three catches in Week 2 against Carolina, Sills has seen his snap count and production trend progressively downward. With only 11 catches for 106 yards and no touchdowns through eight games this season, he's not currently on the fantasy radar.

Sills caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 27-22 victory versus the Packers in London.
Analysis: Sills looked like he could see ample opportunities leading into the weekend as one of three healthy wideouts for New York. Instead, Darius Slayton -- who entered Week 5 with only one catch on two targets -- emerged as the team's top receiver, hauling in six of seven targets for 79 yards. In addition, Marcus Johnson -- who was elevated from the practice squad Saturday -- logged more catches (three) and tallied more yards (35) than Sills.

Sills is likely to see plenty of snaps in Sunday's game against Green Bay with all of Kenny Golladay (knee), Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) and Kadarius Toney (hamstring) ruled out for the clash in London.
Analysis: The Giants received good news Friday when Daniel Jones was able to log a full practice after hurting his ankle in Week 4. While the quarterback appears in line to start in London on Sunday, he'll be without many of his usual pass catchers as injuries have already decimated New York's wideout corps.

Analysis: Sills hasn't been wildly productive this season -- he's nabbed just five catches on eight targets for 57 yards through three games -- but he's been on the field for the majority of the team's offensive snaps and looks to have moved further up the depth chart by default after top wideout Sterling Shepard was lost for the season as a result of tearing his ACL last Sunday.

Sills caught three of four targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Sills enjoyed the best game of his brief career while teammate Kenny Golladay barely saw the field. In fact, Sills trailed only Richie James for the Giants' lead in receiving yards. With Golladay and Kadarius Toney hardly contributing to begin the campaign, Sills' stock is trending in the right direction ahead of Week 3's clash with the Cowboys.

Tallies 56 yards in preseason debut
Sills corralled five of seven targets for 56 yards in Sunday's preseason victory versus the Bengals.
Analysis: Sills didn't play in New York's first exhibition game last Thursday due to an undisclosed injury, but he was back in action for the team's second contest Sunday. The 26-year-old ranked second on the squad in receiving yards and third in receptions in the win. Sills is considered a long shot for a spot on the 53-man roster, so he'll be looking to make another strong impression in the Giants' third and final preseason game against the Jets next weekend.

Unlikely to play Thursday
Sills is dealing with an undisclosed injury and probably won't play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Patriots, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Sills was an early standout in camp, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News, but he's now dealing with an injury that is expected to keep him out of the preseason opener. The West Virginia product would presumably need to show up big in preseason contests to have a chance at making the 53-man roster, so his inability to play Thursday could be particularly detrimental to his outlook with the team.

Sills caught his only target for a 12-yard gain in Sunday's 29-3 loss to Chicago.
Analysis: Sills led all Giants pass-catchers not named Kenny Golladay in playing time Sunday but wasn't able to garner much attention. Despite seeing 40 snaps (71 percent), the West Virginia product didn't get a pass thrown his way until the fourth quarter. The 12-yard pickup was the second-longest of the day for the Giants, which just goes to show the state of their offense right now.

Analysis: Sills began the 2021 campaign on the Giants' practice squad, but he was signed to the active roster ahead of Sunday's contest with the Panthers. New York was without its top three wideouts (Kenny Golladay (knee), Sterling Shepard (hamstring) and Kadarius Toney (ankle), so the 25-year-old wideout played 25 offense snaps and dropped his only target.

Receiving corps too crowded?
Sills (foot) is facing long odds to earn a spot on the Giants' Week 1 roster, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Sills missed all of the 2020 season due to a fractured right foot, and even with a healthy offseason, there may not be room for him on New York's 53-man squad heading into 2021. Duggan estimates that the Giants will roster six wideouts, with Kenny Golladay, Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton and John Ross already expected to account for four of those slots. Dante Pettis seems like another likely roster candidate, so the addition of one or more rookie wideouts in the 2021 NFL Draft could…read more

Shifts to COVID list
Sills (foot) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: Sills has spent the entire season on injured reserve due to a fractured right foot, and there was no indication that the Giants planned on activating him at any point this season prior to his placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Once he clears the NFL's COVID-19 protocols, the second-year wideout will revert to IR.

Placed on reserve/COVID-19 list
The Giants placed Sills (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.
Analysis: Sills' placement on the COVID list means that he's either contracted the virus or been exposed to it and needs to quarantine. The West Virginia product spent most of the 2019 campaign on New York's practice squad after going undrafted. He had a brief stint on the active roster, but did not ultimately get the opportunity to make his NFL debut.

Receives promotion
The Giants promoted Sills from their practice squad Tuesday, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.
Analysis: The Giants placed Evan Engram (foot) on injured reserve Tuesday, affording Sills a chance for a two-game test run with the team to finish the year. Sills -- an undrafted rookie out of West Virginia -- was highly productive in college, recording 125 receptions for 1,966 yards and 33 touchdowns over his final two collegiate seasons. However, Sills likely will have to prove himself on special teams Sunday against the Redskins to catch the coaches' eyes going forward.
