Giants' Sterling Shepard out again despite being cleared from concussion protocol

Wide receiver Sterling Shepard will not play for the New York Giants on Monday night against the Dallas Cowboys despite being cleared from the concussion protocol on Friday.

"He practiced fully this week and was limited with no contact the two weeks before that," coach Pat Shurmur said in a statement. "He told (Sr. VP Medical Services/Head Athletic Trainer) Ronnie (Barnes) last (Saturday) evening he didn't feel well and was sent for examination and evaluation. When he arrived for work this morning, he still did not feel well. At that point, the decision was made to continue in the concussion protocol.
