Dolphins Announce Signing of Defensive Tackle Ben Stille
Dolphins Announce Signing of Defensive Tackle Ben Stille originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Dolphins announced the signing of defensive tackle Ben Stille this morning, adding depth to Miami's front four. Stille fills the roster spot that was vacated by Terron Armstead when he was placed on the retired list. 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. Advertisement 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. Oct 27, 2024; Miami Gardens, Florida, USA; Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel enters the field before the game against the Arizona Cardinals at Hard Rock Navarro-Imagn Images 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. Advertisement 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.

Arizona Cardinals cut DL Ben Stille
The Arizona Cardinals made a pair of roster moves on Thursday, neither of which they announced. They appeared on the NFL transaction report. One was playing cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting on the non-football injury reserve, ending his 2025 season months before it begins. This move we already covered. The other was a simple release from the offseason roster. Advertisement Defensive lineman Ben Stille was placed on waivers. The Cardinals now have two vacancies on their roster as they prepare to begin OTAs (voluntary organized team activities) next week. Over the last two seasons, Stille bounced between the practice squad and the active roster, appearing in eight games and logging three tackles, a sack, a tipped pass and a fumble recovery. He played 240 total snaps in those eight games. The defensive line room is quite full with additions in free agency and the NFL draft. If he goes unclaimed on waivers, he will be an unrestricted free agent, free to sign with any team. Advertisement With the two roster vacancies, we can expect a pair of signings before now and the start of OTAs on Wednesday after the holiday weekend.
