After the New York Giants‘ Week 5 defeat at the hands of the Minnesota Vikings, the organization was followed up with additional bad news. Veteran wide receiver Sterling Shepard came into the building on Monday morning showing symptoms of a concussion. Doctors ultimately entered him into the concussion protocol for the second time this year.
Shepard hasn’t played since, missing the team’s next two games (and losses) against the New England Patriots and Arizona Cardinals. It’s not clear if Shepard will be cleared for the team’s Week 8 game against the Detroit Lions either.
