Sterling Shepard isn’t going to play in tomorrow night’s preseason opener, another meeting of the New York Giants and the New York Jets, but that doesn’t mean the Giants’ top receiver Sterling Shepard isn’t working out in practice with the rest of the team still.
After suffering a fractured thumb, Shepard managed to make a quick recovery to catching again, in a matter of weeks rather than months. Shepard is predicted to come back in week one, and from the current recovery timeline, it doesn’t look like the prediction is an unrealistic one.
This week, Shepard has spoken more about the process of getting back into action in practice following the injury.
