News

  • Good to go for Week 7

    Shepherd (groin) was limited during Wednesday's walkthrough but does not carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against Denver.

    Analysis: Shepherd has been listed as a limited participant all week after picking up a groin injury during Sunday's loss to the Bucs, but the 2018 third-round pick will suit up Thursday. Shepherd has logged 17 tackles (nine solo) through the first six games of the regular season.

  • Dealing with groin issue

    Shepherd (groin) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimation.

    Analysis: The Fort Hays State product played 46 total snaps (39 defensive and seven on special teams) and recorded three total tackles in the Saints' Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers, but it appears he sustained a groin injury in the process. Shepherd's participation Tuesday and Wednesday will provide a better indication of whether he can play through injury in Thursday night's matchup against the Broncos.

  • Back in action

    Shepherd (toe) is healthy once again, Bob Rose of Sports Illustrated reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd was dealing with a toe injury but returned to action during the Saints' preseason matchup versus the Cardinals last week and recorded two tackles, including 0.5 sacks. The 30-year-old will now look to continue producing after the regular season starts.

  • Misses practice due to toe injury

    Shepherd didn't participate in practice Sunday due to a toe issue, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: The exact nature and severity of Shepherd's injury are unclear, and it remains to be seen how long he'll be sidelined. The defensive tackle has been a very reliable presence in recent campaigns, playing in all 17 contests each of the past three regular seasons. Shepherd is slated to again be a prominent part of the Saints' defensive interior in the second year of a three-year contract he signed in March 2023.

  • Improves production again in 2023

    Shepherd appeared in all 17 games during the 2023 regular season, logging 50 tackles, including 3.0 sacks.

    Analysis: Shepherd set a new career high in tackles for the fourth season in a row while also accumulating at least 3.0 sacks for the first time in his career. The 30-year-old played in more of a rotational role over his first five seasons with the Jets, but he led the Saints' defensive tackles with 562 defensive snaps played this season. Shepherd signed a three-year, $15 million contract with New Orleans in March, and he should retain a prominent role alongside fellow interior defensive linemen Khalen…read more

  • Lands in Big Easy

    Shepherd agreed Wednesday with the Saints on a three-year, $15 million contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd's deal reportedly includes $10.2 million guaranteed. The veteran defensive tackle is coming off consecutive seasons without missing a single game, while operating as a key depth option along the Jets' defensive line. He stands to handle a similarly significant role in New Orleans going forward.

  • Re-signs with Jets

    Shepherd agreed Tuesday to re-sign with the Jets, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd appeared in all 17 games for New York in 2021 and registered 28 tackles (17 solo). He was a key depth piece along the Jets' defensive line, playing over 25 percent of the team's defensive snaps in every game. The 2018 third-round pick is once again expected to fill a rotational role in 2022.

  • Set to face Dolphins

    Shepherd (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd entered Sunday with a questionable tag, though he will be able to suit up after logging three limited practices during the week. He's served a rotational role along the Jets' defensive line and a key role on the special teams unit throughout the season. Shepherd has 11 total tackles on the campaign.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Shepherd (knee) is questionable to play Sunday against the Dolphins, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.

    Analysis: Shepherd logged three straight limited practices this week, and it remains to be seen if he'll end up playing. For what is worth, he's yet to miss a game this season, though he hasn't played more than 45 percent of the defensive snaps in a single contest.

  • Suiting up Sunday

    Shepherd (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Analysis: With three tackles in four games to date, Shepard is off the fantasy radar, but the availability of the 2018 third-rounder for Sunday's contest bolsters the depth of the Jets' defensive line in Week 5 versus the Falcons.

  • Questionable for Week 5

    Shepherd (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd was forced to miss practice Wednesday and was a limited participant in practice Thursday with a knee injury. There's optimism the defensive lineman will be able to play Sunday as he was upgraded to a full participant in Friday's practice. Expect Folorunso Fatukasi to serve as the Jets' main defensive lineman off the bench if Shepherd is ruled out.

  • Active for Week 9

    Shepherd (back) is active for Monday night's matchup against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Shepherd was completely held out of practice Thursday while dealing with a back issue, though in retrospect, that may have been a precautionary measure given that the 27-year-old is ready for action on Monday night. With Quinnen Williams (hamstring) ruled out ahead of the Week 9 AFC East clash, Shepherd may register his first start at defensive end since 2018.

  • Dealing with injury

    Shepherd (back) didn't suit up in Thursday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but it's not a good sign for Shepherd's chances for Monday's game against the Patriots. If Shepherd was forced to miss game action, Bryce Huff would be in line to see in uptick in snaps for Week 9.

  • Active for Thursday's contest

    Shepherd (ankle) is active for Thursday's contest against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Shepherd has been limited in practice all week, but he will suit up for Thursday's primetime matchup. He will likely be used as a depth option along the defensive line.

  • Status uncertain for TNF

    Shepherd (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Ravens, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd popped up on the injury report as a limited participant all week, and he's one of four defensive linemen listed with injuries. If he's able to play, and either Henry Anderson (shoulder) or Quinnen Williams (neck) can't go, Shepherd likely will start at defensive end. The final verdict on their statuses will be revealed 90 minutes before the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Officially reinstated

    The Jets activated Shepherd on Friday after the conclusion of his six-game suspension, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd is eligible to retake the field as early as Sunday's divisional tilt against the Dolphins. With Leonard Williams having been dealt to the Giants on Monday, Shepherd could conceivably play an immediate role along the Jets' defensive line.
