Sterling Shepard Gets Good Matchup On Sunday
5 years agoNew York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard gets a good matchup on Sunday against an Eagles Defense that ranks 28th in the league in points allowed to wide receivers over the last six weeks. Shepard has seen a minimum of six targets in each of his last five games, which is a safe floor in a game that could shootout with so much on the line for the Eagles, who are trying to clinch a playoff spot. Before keeping the Cowboys receivers out of the end zone last week, the Eagles had allowed two receiving touchdowns in the previous three games and scores in the previous five. The Giants have a crowded receiving room, which makes Shepard a bit of a risk, but his target floor keeps him as a WR3 option.
