His drop today cost Giants a FG. He was average in his prime and is now washed and useless. He needs to go and take Paris Campbell with him. Pick any practice squad WR from any roster and it is an upgrade . Mara can keep paying him as captain of cheer squad .
I was OK with keeping him, he had a nice preseason, although I (most, tbh) also wondered aloud why Crowder was cut
so hire him as a coach and save a roster spot
Name the players whose spots he is taking....
Yes he is a shell of himself and part of that is lack of use - rust. There has to be a reason Parris Campbell is not on the field vs Shep. Campbell should be better and he is much faster.
The knock on Shepard was that 1. He was always injured. 2. His age and salary made him unlikely to be on the Giants team after this year. 3. His presence prevented younger players from being developed.
He certainly fooled me. I assumed he'd by on IR by now, rather than being in decline.
I don't know about that; Shepard's more of a slot type while Hyatt is more like Darius Slayton with speed. Maybe Shepard was an emergency option if Robinson couldn't return quickly enough (still puzzled myself).
And 22 career receiving touchdowns.
More rushes than TDs is never a good WR stat, right?
