Summary

Sterling Shepard is a reliable veteran with limited upside. He's averaged more than 50 yards per game for five straight seasons thanks to precise route running and good hands, but he lacks explosiveness and has just 21 touchdowns in six seasons. He's missed 20 games over the last three seasons and is currently recovering from an Achilles injury.

Giants WRs talk new offense

New York Giants WRs Kadarius Toney and Sterling Shepard recently spoke about the new offense being installed by head coach Brian Daboll. 'Moving parts all day long,' Shepard said. 'It kind of gets overwhelming whenever you look at the motion list, too. They have it broken down on our [tablets], so when you look at the motion list, it's so many different motions that you can do. It'll be good getting a lot of our playmakers moving around. It's going to be tough on defenses.' Toney added, 'you're able to just win. You don't have to run the pen-and-paper version of your route every time. 'It's not set in stone, like, no matter which way the cornerback is playing you have to run that route.'
