Wide receivers for Saints to add – No. 4: Kenny Stills

Although he might be affordable to add, there’s history between the Saints and Kenny Stills.

New Orleans drafted Stills in the fifth round of the 2013 NFL Draft out of Oklahoma. Stills went on to dazzle in the first two years of his career but was shockingly traded following the 2014 season. It was a move that made little sense given how talented he was, especially for a fifth-round pick.

Stills played well for the Dolphins but didn’t do much last year for the Texans. He’s currently the best free agent on the market and that makes him a must-include option on this list.

The Saints already know what Kenny Stills is capable of because they’ve seen him in a Saints uniform before and he impressed mightily. That being said, he hasn’t played for the Saints since the 2014 season and a lot has changed since then.

If New Orleans is desperate enough and Stills is willing to reconcile, this is something that could make a lot of sense for both sides.
