Atlanta Falcons wide receiver David Sills V is expected to see more opportunities in Week 12 with Drake London (knee) ruled out. Sills has been on the field consistently for Atlanta this season, playing 40.3% of the snaps, but has just four catches for 34 yards on nine targets. Atlanta will also be without starting quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (knee) on Sunday, leaving Kirk Cousins to make his second start of the season. Cousins will primarily be looking for Darnell Mooney and Kyle Pitts Sr. in the passing game, but Sills may see an increase in opportunities as well. He will likely be in the top three Falcons for routes run, which gives him some appeal in deeper leagues.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Davis Sills V should be in line for more work in Week 12 against the division-rival New Orleans Saints after Drake London (knee) suffered a PCL sprain in the overtime loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Darnell Mooney and tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. should be quarterback Kirk Cousins' top targets for however long London is sidelined, but Sills inevitably should see more looks as well. The 29-year-old caught one of his two targets in the Week 11 loss for 11 yards, which was his second-best game of the year. In his first year in Atlanta, he's only caught four of his nine targets for 34 yards in 10 games, so it would be unreasonable to expect him to suddenly go off in fantasy in the coming weeks with London injured. Still, Sills is worth a look off the waiver wire in deeper leagues for WR depth. He's currently available in 100% of Yahoo leagues.

The Atlanta Falcons announced on Tuesday that they signed wide receivers David Sills, Phillip Dorsett II, Dylan Drummond, Jesse Matthews and Makai Polk, defensive tackles Junior Aho and LaCale London, offensive lineman Matthew Cindric, running back Elijah Dotson, offensive guards Joey Fisher and Jovaughn Gwyn, defensive backs Lamar Jackson and Benny Sapp III, quarterback Emory Jones, defensive end Khalid Kareem and offensive tackle Tyrone Wheatley Jr. to Reserve/Futures deals. Thirteen of the 16 players were on the Falcons' practice squad at some point in 2024, with Gwyn, Jackson and Kareem seeing time on the active roster. Sills was with the Denver Broncos this year and was elevated to the active roster in Week 17, although he didn't see any action. He has 13 career catches for 123 yards in 16 games (seven starts) since debuting in 2021.

New York Giants wide receiver David Sills V led the team in receiving in a loss to the New York Jets in the team's preseason finale on Saturday. He finished with a stat line of six catches for 81 yards and a touchdown. The score came with just 47 seconds remaining in the contest when a win was essentially out of reach. All of his production came with third-string quarterback Tommy Devito under center. The ex-West Virginia Mountaineer is unlikely to make the final roster and should not be drafted in fantasy football.
