Countdown to Kickoff: Jack Stoll is the Saints Player of Day 88
Countdown to Kickoff: Jack Stoll is the Saints Player of Day 88 With 88 days between now and the 2025 regular season opener for the New Orleans Saints. The Saints will host the Arizona Cardinals to kick off their 59th NFL season. Wearing No. 88 for New Orleans at this time is tight end Jack Stoll. An offseason addition by the team, Stoll is our Saints Player of the Day. Let's have a closer look at his background. Name (age): Jack Stoll (27) Jack Stoll (27) Hometown: Aurora, Colo. Aurora, Colo. Position: Tight end Tight end Height, weight: 6-foot-4, 247 pounds 6-foot-4, 247 pounds College: Nebraska Cornhuskers Nebraska Cornhuskers Relative Athletic Score: 7.97 7.97 Drafted: Undrafted, 2021 (Philadelphia Eagles) Undrafted, 2021 (Philadelphia Eagles) NFL experience: 4 seasons 4 seasons 2025 salary cap hit: $1,362,500 An all-state selection as a senior at Regis Jesuit High School in Colorado, Stoll was the nation's 9th-rated tight end and decided on Nebraska as his collegiate choice. After a redshirt year, Stoll caught eight passes as a little-used reserve in 2017. Over the next three years, he'd be a regular starter despite missing some time with injuries as a senior. Between 2018 and 2019, he'd have 46 catches for 279 yards and scored 4 times while exhibiting standout blocking skills for the Cornhuskers. Philadelphia brought Stoll in as an undrafted rookie in 2021. He wouldn't contribute much as a receiver, just 4 catches and 22 yards, but still started five contests among 16 game appearances. Stoll's contributions as a blocker continued through 2022 and 2023. He caught 16 passes for 161 yards in those two seasons combined. However, he made 21 starts and played in all 34 games, appearing in around 45% of Philadelphia's offensive snaps. New Saints head coach Kellen Moore took over as Philadelphia's offensive coordinator last season. Stoll played the year's first seven games under Moore, making two starts, before being waived just before midseason. He was picked up by the Miami Dolphins, where he played four games but caught no passes. Over his four-year career, Stoll has played in 61 of a possible 68 games. He has 22 receptions for 193 yards and has yet to score a touchdown. Stoll will now have a chance to win a role as the blocking tight end for New Orleans. It's a role where he's performed well over his short career and where his best chance at a roster spot lies.

Tight end Jack Stoll signs contract with New Orleans Saints
A former Husker tight end has signed a one-year contract in the NFL. Jack Stoll agreed to terms with the New Orleans Saints on Thursday. Stoll played at Nebraska from 2016 to 2020. In 43 career games, he had 61 receptions for 657 yards and six touchdowns. After dealing with injuries his senior year, the tight end received an extra year of eligibility from the NCAA. He would decline that extra year and enter the 2021 NFL draft. He would go undrafted but signed a free agent contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. He's also spent time in the NFL with the New York Giants and the Miami Dolphins. John Sigler of Saints Wire believes that Stoll's previous relationship with the New Orleans coaching staff should help solidify his team role. "He's someone several Saints coaches know well, particularly Kellen Moore and run game coordinator T.J. Paganetti. Stoll has a reputation as a skilled blocker on running plays and that figures to be his main role in New Orleans." Stoll is another example of a former Cornhusker finding success at the next level.
