Ravens | Russell Shepard declines workout offer Wed Aug 19, 12:12 PM
Free-agent WR Russell Shepard (Giants) received interest from the Baltimore Ravens, but he declined the chance to work out for the team. He does not plan to play this upcoming season.
Footballguys view: An interesting decision but Shepard's well within his right to do that. Shepard was always a great athlete but kind of a player without a true position. He was an athlete/quarterback/wide receiver dating back to his days at LSU. Perhaps Shepard will try to play again in 2021. |

Giants | Russell Shepard lands on IR Thu Sep 26, 06:01 PM
New York Giants WR Russell Shepard (foot) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Sept. 26, due to a sprained foot. RB Jon Hilliman was promoted from the practice squad.
Footballguys view: Hilliman is worth tracking in deep dynasty leagues but was a nondescript prospect who had a good enough camp to land on the practice squad. The Giants must not have liked the veteran backs they worked out earlier this week. |

Giants | Russell Shepard could earn solid role Sat Jul 14, 12:59 PM
New York Giants WR Russell Shepard has a chance to win the No. 4 receiver job if he can show reliable hands during training camp and the preseason.
Footballguys view: The reality is that with Odell Beckham Jr., Evan Engram, Sterling Shepard, and now Saquon Barkley, that any receiver who is considered the fourth or fifth best on the team is unlikely to have fantasy relevance. He's not worth tracking. |

Giants | Russell Shepard inks deal with NY Giants Mon May 21, 08:06 PM
Free-agent WR Russell Shepard (Panthers) signed an undisclosed deal with the New York Giants on Monday, May 21.
Footballguys view: Shepard is more athlete than wide receiver, and he's got only 47 catches for 634 yards and four touchdowns during his five-year pro career. He did have a career high of 23 catches with the Buccaneers back in 2016, but last year with the Panthers Shepard snared only 17 passes. The Giants are stacked at the position, so Shepard has his work cut out if he wants to make the 53-man roster. |

Bills | Russell Shepard will visit Bills Tue May 15, 06:51 PM
Free-agent WR Russell Shepard (Panthers) has a visit scheduled with the Buffalo Bills this week.

Panthers | Russell Shepard released Mon May 14, 03:27 PM
Updating a previous report, Carolina Panthers WR Russell Shepard was officially released Monday, May 14.
Footballguys view: Shepard is incredibly athletic but he's still somewhat raw as a receiver. Reports indicated he didn't want to take a pay cut, leading to his release. The Panthers have added plenty of talent to the receiving corps and should not miss Shepard. We'll see if he can latch on as a reserve receiver and return man somewhere else. |
