He spent the 2021 and 2022 season in New York, making 13 receptions in 15 games played across two seasons.
Prior to his NFL career, Sills played three seasons for the Mountaineers in 2015 and 2017-18, totaling 132 receptions for 2,097 yards and 35 touchdowns. He started his football career as a quarterback and was once a top recruit of then USC head coach Lane Kiffin.
