Had a pretty nice game vs Jets in the Giants last preseason game. Not sure if it will be enough to make the NYG roster but a couple real nice plays in this vid might get him a shot somewhere.
David Sills IV
- Thread starter BackinBlack86
- Start date
looked solid to me, definitely looks like a NFL receiver. Maybe bulk up and play TE. Either way special player imo
I don't think he will make the roster. If they are able to, they will put him on the practice squad. If he is at least on the practice squad and someone picks him up they have to automatically put him on their 53 man roster so hopefully someone liked what they saw last night. Also due to injury and not really being able to practice things don't look good for Gary Brightwell making the 53 man for the giants either
With the giants having sterling shepard, jalin hyatt, Darius Slayton, parris Campbell, Isiah hodgins and wandale Robinson, I just don't think they would carry him as a 7th receiver, but the giants are my team and Sills is a delaware guy so I am definitely rooting for him.
Even the projections from NY/NJ media with them carrying 7 WR's don't have SiIls making it. I don't know if he would be eligible for practice squad if so he would have to be one of the 4 players they can put on with more than 9 NFL games under their belt. Giants may not want to make him one of the 4 at this point. You can only have 16 PC plyers.

I forgot they also have Cole Beasley as well...I think he will make the practice squad and he would be the first call up if a WR goes down or hopefully someone does pick him up sometime over the season
Troy Reeder also not on Vikings 53 man roster. He is listed in SI article as “waived or released”. Unsure of any practice squad status.

Sills signed to Broncos practice squad.
Pitts signed to Pats Practice Squad

Sills should be happy about that. If I remember correctly he was a Broncos (John Elway) fan growing up. Hence the #7 he wore in HS
Troy Reeder to Rams practice squad.
Rams reunite with Troy Reeder, sign him to practice squad
The Los Angeles Rams began signing players to their practice squad on Wednesday after finalizing their initial 53-man roster, adding 15 players – 14 of which were with the team this offseason. The only player who wasn’t on the Rams’ 90-man roster was Troy…

Gary has good special teams value. He embraces the role and made some plays there.

A scholar informed that Troy had a tackle yesterday. He must have moved up from the Rams practice squad. Maybe an injury fill in.

I'm not sure what they make but I do believe if they are brought up for one game they are actually paid for 3. I imagine that they would have to be paid a vet minimum though
This is from an MGM betting site…unsure of validity.
“The minimum salary for NFL practice squad players if $12,000 per week. If a player has accrued at least two seasons, their minimum salary is $16,100 per week and maximum salary is $20,600 per week. If a player with fewer than two seasons is on the practice squad for all 18 weeks, they would earn $216,000.”
I think if you move up to the active roster for like 4 weeks you get a bump and some accrual toward the NFL pension system.
The latter is apocryphal. ( whatever that means)
Let me continue with the above hearsay. I was told if you were activated for 4 games, you were guaranteed $250,000 for the year.
