The Giants’ fourth-quarter comeback attempt against the Cowboys on Monday night fell short in the final drive. As it turns out, New York lost more than just the game.
Wide receiver Sterling Shepard suffered a non-contact leg injury on the possession, falling to the turf in obvious pain and clutching his left knee. He eventually would need to be carted off the field and into the locker room.
After the game, Giants coach Brian Daboll said the team had no specifics on the nature and extent of Shepard’s injury, and that further testing would be done Tuesday.
