Stille will be entering his third year in the NFL in 2025. The defensive tackle was initially signed by the Dolphins in 2022 as an undrafted free agent out of Nebraska.
Stille played five seasons at Nebraska, accumulating 53 games played. The Cornhusker totaled 149 tackles, 31 TFLs, and 14.5 sacks.
In his rookie season, he spent most of the time on the Dolphins' practice squad. Stille was elevated for one game and saw playing time, and late in the season, the Browns signed him off the Dolphins' practice squad. Stille then saw action in six games for the Browns before being waived.
The Cardinals signed Stille to their practice squad in 2023, and he played in five games that season.
In 2024, he began the year on the Cardinals' practice squad before the Buccaneers signed him. Stille played in three games with Tampa Bay before they waived him, and the Cardinals added him back to their practice squad.
Like a game of hopscotch, Stille was waived by the Cardinals last month and picked up by the Dolphins today, coming full circle.
In his two-year career, Stille has collected 17 tackles, three quarterback hits, and two sacks.
Stille joins the Dolphins' defensive line group that includes Benito Jones, Matt Dickerson, Zach Sieler; draft picks Kenneth Grant, Jordan Phillips, Zeek Biggers, undrafted free agent Alex Huntley, and waiver claim Matthew Butler.
