Kenny Stills’ return to the Saints was not as productive as anticipated

After years of clamoring for his return, the Saints were finally able to bring Kenny Stills back to New Orleans by signing him to the practice squad on September 15th. Stills was elevated to the active roster on September 25 and made his 2021 debut a day later against New England.

Kenny Stills looked like a late round gem for the Saints in his first two seasons, but was unceremoniously traded after leading the team in receiving his second year in the league

Originally drafted in the 5th round of the 2013 draft out of the University of Oklahoma, Kenny Stills immediately provided a much needed deep threat to Drew Brees and the Saints offense during his rookie and sophomore years.
