The New York Giants football team received a welcome boost on Sunday with the activation of wide receivers Sterling Shepard and Jamison Crowder from the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list.
Sterling Shepard Returns from Injury
Shepard had been sidelined since suffering a torn ACL early last season, marking the second consecutive season where he had been hit with a serious leg injury. Prior to his injury, Shepard had recorded 154 yards on 13 receptions and scored one touchdown in just three games.
As the Giants’ longest-tenured player, Shepard has been a part of the team since 2016, which was also the last time the team made the postseason prior to their 2022 appearance.
