To elevate his game, Sterling Shepard picks Odell Beckham's brain

WALDWICK, N.J. -- There is more to playing wide receiver than running, catching and scoring. It's much more complex at the NFL level.

Sterling Shepard spent part of his offseason refining his skills and restocking his brain to become better at the craft. Part of it involved being in Los Angeles this month working alongside teammate Odell Beckham Jr. and his trainer Jamal Liggin.

Shepard, 24, believes it had its benefits and should pay off on the field this season.

"Training around the best to do it [Beckham] in my eyes," he said Saturday at the Hyundai Youth Football Camp.
