The Atlanta Falcons have signed wide receiver David Sills to a reserve/future contract, continuing their efforts to bolster their roster for the upcoming season. Sills, who was once a highly regarded quarterback recruit for USC at just 13 years old, has transitioned to wide receiver, showcasing impressive stats during his college career at West Virginia. He led the Big 12 in touchdown receptions in consecutive seasons, amassing 18 in 2017 and 15 in 2018. Despite going undrafted in 2019, Sills has made appearances with the New York Giants and the Denver Broncos, totaling 13 receptions and 123 yards in 16 games from 2021 to 2023.

His most recent stint included three games with the Broncos but limited production due to a lack of playing time. The Falcons' interest in Sills reflects their strategy of adding depth to their receiving corps, following the signing of former first-round pick Phillip Dorsett II earlier in January. As the Falcons prepare for the next season, the addition of Sills could provide them with a versatile option on offense, complementing their existing talent.

The Denver Broncos have officially allowed three players—offensive lineman Cam Fleming, tight end Donald Parham, and wide receiver David Sills—to enter the free agency pool as their contracts have expired. All three players were primarily seen in supporting roles and were part of the team’s practice squad last season.

Fleming, 32, has been with the Broncos since 2021, starting 20 games over his tenure. He expressed his desire to continue playing in the league next season. Parham joined the Broncos last August but did not see any game action, remaining on the practice squad despite opportunities due to underperformance in the tight end group. Meanwhile, Sills was a preseason standout but was unable to secure a spot on the active roster.

In Week 15 of the NFL, several players made notable contributions despite mixed results for their teams. Dante Stills and Kyzir White led the Arizona Cardinals to a victory over the New England Patriots, with White achieving a team-high 12 tackles.

Meanwhile, Rasul Douglas helped the Buffalo Bills secure a win against the Detroit Lions. David Long Jr. struggled defensively in the same game.

Other players like Bryce Ford-Wheaton of the New York Giants and Geno Smith of the Seattle Seahawks had challenging outings, while several players remained on practice squads.
