Texans' Kenny Stills 'grateful' for time with Dolphins, looks forward to 'new chapter'

Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills broke his silence, commenting for the first time on being traded from the Miami Dolphins last Saturday.

The speedy veteran wideout joined the Texans after crticizing owner Stephen Ross for hosting a fundraiser recently for President Donald Trump. Passionate about raising awareness about social justice issues and repeatedly kneeling for the national anthem prior to games, Stills was also critical of hip-hop mogul and businessman Jay-Z and his social justice partnership with the NFL.

The day after Stills’ comments, Dolphins coach Brian Flores trolled the wide receiver by playing eight Jay-Z songs in a row.
