EAST RUTHERFORD -- You can put Sterling Shepard in the slot but not in a box.
The third-year pro doesn't want to be typecast as a slot receiver, especially if the Giants are going to use significantly fewer three-wide sets in favor of more tight ends and a fullback.
"In this offense," Shepard said, "you kind of have to learn every single piece because you can be moved around, and then when we're going fast you can pretty much line up anywhere. You have to know everything. You have to be able to run routes from the inside and outside.
