Malik Heath - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Gets look from Seattle Heath participated in a workout with the Seahawks on Tuesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Heath finished the 2025 season on the Falcons' roster after being waived by the Packers in early December, but he didn't end playing for Atlanta for the rest of the year. He is still without a team but is getting a look from the defending Super Bowl champions, with the Seahawks' wide receiver room led by Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed and Cooper Kupp.

Healthy scratch for MNF Heath (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Rams, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Heath has yet to appear in a game for the Falcons since being claimed off waivers from the Packers in early December, and that trend will continue for Monday night's game. With Atlanta eliminated from postseason contention, Week 18 against the Saints on Sunday presents Heath his final opportunity to play this season. The Falcons will go with five active wide receivers in Drake London, Darnell Mooney, David Sills, Dylan Drummond and Deven Thompkins.

Ready to rock Heath (personal) is not listed on Thursday's estimated injury report, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Heath did not suit up Week 16 versus the Cardinals due to a personal matter, though he had been a healthy scratch for Atlanta's prior two contests. He'll be fully available for Monday's home game against the Rams, now, in the event that that the coaching staff decides Heath is ready for his Falcons debut after having been claimed by the team off waivers Dec. 8.

Atlanta debut on pause Heath (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Atlanta claimed Heath off waivers Monday, so he's only had a few days with the team. He's likely to suit up at some point in the remaining games of the regular season, but his Falcons' debut will have to wait until at least Week 16.

Catches on with Atlanta The Falcons claimed Heath off waivers from the Packers on Monday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Heath was waived by the Packers on Saturday after Jayden Reed (foot) was activated from injured reserve. He'll find a new opportunity with the Falcons, though he faces an uphill battle to carve himself a meaningful role in Atlanta's offense for the rest of the 2025 season. Heath has six catches (on seven targets) for 86 yards through 11 regular-season games.

Packers fans' hopes of Malik Heath reunion end after he's stolen by another team It felt inevitable, but Green Bay Packers fans' hopes of Malik Heath returning to the practice squad are now over.

Waived by Greenbay The Packers waived Heath on Saturday.

Impact Heath played in 11 games for the Packers this season, totaling six receptions for 86 yards on seven targets. The waiving of the wide receiver likely has to do with the potential return of both Jayden Reed (foot) and Matthew Golden (wrist). Heath will now revert to the waiver wire, and if he clears, he will become a free agent.

No catches in Week 13 victory Heath didn't catch his only target in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions.

Impact Jordan Love tossed 30 passes for the first time in three weeks, but only one of them went to Heath, who has now gone without a reception in each of his past three games. Heath logged as many offensive snaps (11) as receiver-turned-cornerback Bo Melton, while Romeo Doubs (53), Christian Watson (46) and Dontayvion Wicks (31) featured as Green Bay's top three wideouts. Heath's role could shrink further when Matthew Golden (wrist) or Savion Williams (foot) returns to action.

Out Sunday Heath (coach's decision) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Heath has played a rotational role for the Packers this season, making an appearance in all 10 games, recording six receptions on six targets, for 86 yards. This could be a positive sign for fellow wideouts Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Savion Williams (foot), who are both questionable for Week 11.

Green light to play Week 10 Heath (hip) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Eagles, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact A hip issue limited Heath in practice Friday and Saturday, but the injury isn't severe enough to warrant an injury designation for the third-year wideout. He could play a sizable role on offense Monday as the Packers are managing injuries to fellow wideouts Matthew Golden (shoulder), Dontayvion Wicks (calf) or Savion Williams (foot), all of whom are listed as questionable for Week 10.

Tending to hip issue Heath (hip) was a limited participant at practice Friday.

Impact Heath was a full participant at practice Thursday, so it's not immediately obvious when he suffered the hip injury. Either way, he'll now probably need to practice in full Saturday to avoid being given an injury designation on Green Bay's final practice report of the week.

Hauls in three passes Heath was targeted three times and caught three passes for 29 yards in Sunday's 35-25 victory over the Steelers.

Impact Fellow wideout Christian Watson made his season debut in Week 8, but another pass catcher -- Dontayvion Wicks (calf) -- did not suit up, so Heath spent another game as Green Bay's fourth wideout and set a season high in receptions. Heath will likely fall behind Wicks on the depth chart when he returns, and one more receiver -- rookie Savion Williams -- could get more involved, which does not leave much upside from a fantasy perspective.

Held without target again Heath was not targeted in Sunday's 27-23 victory over the Cardinals.

Impact Heath -- due in part to a calf injury sustained by fellow wideout Dontayvion Wicks -- finished third among Packers receivers in snaps in Week 7, but he finished without a target for the fourth time in six appearances this season. Heath could benefit if Wicks misses any further action, but another pass catcher -- Christian Watson (knee) -- is due back soon, so any sort of long-term boost looks unlikely.

Held without target again Heath was not targeted in Sunday's 27-23 victory over the Cardinals.

Not involved against Bengals Heath failed to record a single target in Sunday's 27-18 win over the Bengals.

Impact Heath saw his highest snap share of the season Sunday, playing 46 percent of the Packers' offensive snaps after averaging a 26 percent snap share over the team's first four games. Despite the uptick in playing time, the third-year wideout was unable to get anything going against a vulnerable defense. Considering Heath is already buried on the depth chart and teammate Christian Watson (knee) is nearing his return, the 25-year-old is best ignored for fantasy purposes going forward. Up next for Green Bay is a Week 7 matchup against the Cardinals.
