Stills recorded four total tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, and defended one pass in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Dolphins.
The second-year pro from West Virginia saw increased opportunities as an edge rusher in Week 8 with both Darius Robinson (calf) and Dennis Gardeck (knee) sidelined, and he made the most of his chances. Stills was the only Cardinal to bring down Tua Tagovailoa in Sunday's win, notching his second sack in as many weeks. Even with Robinson potentially returning from injury for Week 9's matchup against the Bears, expect Stills to continue serving as one of the Cardinals' top edge rushers.

Cardinals' Dante Stills: Sack leader in spot start
Rotowire
Stills had five tackles (three solo) including 1.5 sacks in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Ravens.
Stills got the start at edge rusher with Kevin Strong (shoulder) ruled out for Sunday's contest. His 1.5 sacks led the team as he got to Lamar Jackson in the first quarter and in combination with Victor Dimukeje in the third frame. Stills' 30 defensive snaps were the most since Week 5 and he'll continue to see more work on the defensive line for as long as Strong remains out.
