Damien Martinez: Signs with Green Bay
The Packers signed Martinez to the practice squad Tuesday.
With MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) on injured reserve, it seems the Packers would like to bolster their running back room before the upcoming playoff run. The rookie seventh-rounder was waived by the Seahawks at the end of the preseason and has not yet seen action in an NFL regular-season game. Lloyd will be a candidate for elevation if Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson or Chris Brooks were to suffer an injury in the coming weeks.

Sills caught three passes on four targets for 37 yards during the Falcons' 27-24 win over the Rams on Monday.
Sills finished Monday's game leading the Falcons in receiving yards and second in receptions behind Bijan Robinson' five. Sills' production came despite Kirk Cousins throwing for only 126 yards on 13 completions, and with Drake London not looking fully recovered from a knee injury. Sills and the Falcons will wrap up the regular season Sunday at home against the Saints.

Darnell Mooney WR | NYG
Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Logs two catches vs. LAR
Mooney caught two passes on three targets for 35 yards during the Falcons' 27-24 win over the Rams on Monday.
Mooney made a crucial 13-yard grab on third down to extend a drive that ultimately ended with a four-yard touchdown pass from Kirk Cousins to Bijan Robinson. Mooney added a 22-yard catch late in the third quarter but was not targeted by Cousins again, resulting in a two-catch performance for a second consecutive week. Mooney has caught three passes or fewer in 13 of 14 regular-season games and has seen five targets or more in just six of those contests. The sixth-year wideout will take a 29-423-1 receiving line on 65 targets into Sunday's regular-season finale against the Saints.

It was the second time this season that Hunt logged at least 2.0 sacks in a game, and the second-year linebacker is up to 50 tackles (26 solo), including 6.5 sacks, two interceptions (including a pick-six) and two forced fumbles through 16 regular-season games.
