The injuries keep on piling up for the New York Giants, with the latest news relating to veteran wide receiver Sterling Shepard. On Wednesday, a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter noted that Shepard would be placed on injured reserve and thus miss at least the next three weeks. Shepard suffered a turf toe injury right before halftime of the team’s Week 2 loss in Chicago.
Now, it’s become very much clear the Giants must find a way to replace their starting wideout, at least temporarilty. Young quarterback Daniel Jones needs all the assistance he can get, especially with Saquon Barkley also out — the star running back tore his ACL against the Bears and will miss the remainder of the season.
