New York Giants WR Sterling Shepard is making significant progress

At least the New York Giants have some optimistic news after losing their fourth consecutive game this past Sunday.

Wideout Sterling Shepard participated in a contact practice on Wednesday. Shepard has been in the concussion protocol since Oct. 7 and has missed each of the last three games. The veteran receiver has missed four total matchups this year, as he was in the concussion protocol for the Week 2 loss to the Buffalo Bills as well.

“It’s just a matter of time,” head coach Pat Shurmur said on Wednesday regarding Shepard’s return, per Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post.
