Sterling Shepard Expected To Be Activated From PUP List
2 years agoNew York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (Achilles) ramped up his work at training camp practice last week as he recovers from a torn Achilles, and it looks like he will be activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list before the start of the regular season. If Shepard doesn't come off the PUP list before Week 1, he'd be forced to sit out the first four games. However, even if the 29-year-old is ready for the season opener, he might not have much of a role alongside Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney and rookie Wan'Dale Robinson. After playing in only seven games in 2021 due to injuries, Shepard is going to have to prove to fantasy managers this year that he's worth a roster spot in deeper leagues.
