Kenny Stills Becoming Consistent Receiving Option
6 years agoThe Miami Dolphins have faith that wide receiver Kenny Stills can become a complete No. 1 option for the offense in the passing game. “We know he’s a vertical threat. He showed that again, that he’s still able to do that,” head coach Adam Gase said. “There’s [going to be] more underneath and there’s [going to be] more as far as receptions per game go, to where maybe instead of four catches for 100 yards, it might end up being like seven or eight catches, where there might be a couple of shorter throws in there.” However, Stills has never had more than 63 catches in a single season, and he had just four catches on five targets in Week 1 against the Titans, but he turned that into 106 yards and two touchdowns. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill sees Stills as his most trusted receiver. That's big for fantasy, and Still should remain a strong WR3 as long as Devante Parker (finger) remains out. Stills leads the NFL with 13 touchdowns of 20-plus yards since the start of the 2016 season. He has also caught 12 TDs out of the slot in the last two years, which is the most in the NFL.
