6 years agoNew York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard will look to stay hot after posting 16 receptions for 157 yards and two touchdowns over his last two games. Shepard is a talented receiver but the Giants offense has struggled coming up with big plays in the first month of the season. Shepard and the Giants will go up against a Panthers defense that has allowed the 14th fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers in three games. Teams that play Carolina have had success getting the football to secondary receivers on offense. The Bengals were able to spring secondary receiver Tyler Boyd for 132 yards in Week 3 with a touchdown and the Falcons Calvin Ridley added 64 yards and one score in Week 2. Shepard has plenty of sleeper appeal in Week 5.--Joey C - RotoBaller
