EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard has cleared concussion protocol and is set to return Monday night against the Dallas Cowboys.
Rookie cornerback Corey Ballentine (concussion) was also cleared.
Shepard has missed the past three games since suffering his second concussion in four weeks on Oct. 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. He will return after almost a month on the sideline.
The Giants (2-6) expected Shepard to be out a while after he reported symptoms the day after the loss to the Vikings.
