Sterling Shepard won’t play vs. Cowboys, back in concussion protocol

The Giants won’t be getting Sterling Shepard back Monday night after all.

In a troubling sign, the team announced Sunday that Shepard won’t play against the Cowboys and is back in concussion protocol. Shepard suffered a concussion on Oct. 6, his second concussion of the season.

“He practiced fully this week and was limited with no contact the two weeks before that,” Pat Shurmur told the team website regarding Shepard. “He told (trainer) Ronnie (Barnes) last evening (Saturday) he didn’t feel well and was sent for examination and evaluation. When he arrived for work this morning, he still did not feel well.
