The Houston Texans released Stills in November after he caught just 11 passes for 144 yards and a touchdown in 10 games. After being out of the league for a little over a month, the Bills signed the 28-year-old earlier on Jan. 4. He'll join a group that includes Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley.

Stills played for the New Orleans Saints and Miami Dolphins before being traded to the Texans in September 2019. In 117 career regular-season games, the Oklahoma product has 310 receptions for 4,843 yards and 37 touchdowns.

One of Stills' best seasons came in 2017 when he reeled in 58 catches for 847 yards and six touchdowns in Miami.
