New Orleans Saints: Don’t expect Kenny Stills to fill WR1 role

While re-signing Kenny Stills was a good move for the New Orleans Saints given their lack of help at the wide receiver position, this doesn’t mean the team has their WR1 until Michael Thomas returns to the lineup.

Stills, a former fifth-round pick by the Saints in the 2013 NFL Draft, was a nice player for the black and gold during his two seasons in the Big Easy. During that time, Stills hauled in 95 receptions for 1,572 yards and eight touchdowns through 31 games (17 of which were starts).

It didn’t end well between Stills and the Saints, but this was a move the team desperately needed to make.
