Kenny Stills thrives in expanded role

Saints wide receiver Kenny Stills saw his role grow in Week 12 against the Ravens, as he established a career-high in catches in a 34-27 loss.

Stills was second among the team's wide receivers as he logged 51 snaps Monday, and was second on the team overall in targets with nine. He and quarterback Drew Brees hooked up on nine of those passes for a team-high 98 yards in the loss.

Stills' playing time increased from 56 percent of the team's snaps last week to 70 percent Monday, as he mostly stepped right into Brandin Cooks' role. With Cooks out for the season with a thumb injury, Stills could continue to see a healthy amount of playing time, but he is probably going to be third on the team's passing hierarchy most weeks, so don't expect this kind of production ever week.

Still, he has 9 Fantasy points in consecutive games, and certainly could be worth a flier on waivers this week, in the event he breaks out down the stretch.
