Kenny Stills

The New Orleans Saints had a salary cap issue and felt that Kenny Stills was expendable despite a promising start to his NFL career. During the 2015 off-season, Still was traded to the Miami Dolphins for a 3rd round draft pick. Drafted in the 5th round of the 2013 NFL Draft, Stills compiled 1,572 yards on 95 receptions in his two seasons with New Orleans.

The Miami Dolphins view Stills as their deep threat replacement for Mike Wallace who was traded to the Minnesota Vikings during this years off-season. Stills has eight touchdowns on his NFL resume. The Oklahoma product has elite NFL speed and has already developed a rapport with Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill who has had issues with the deep pass.

Stills will line up on the outside in Miami opposite rookie DeVante Parker who is recovering from off-season foot surgery. He has averaged 20 and 14.8 yards per reception in two seasons in the NFL. A reliable pass catcher, Stills is expected to be a favorite target in the Dolphins passing game in 2015.
