News

  • Cut by Los Angeles

    The Chargers waived Shepherd (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Los Angeles waived/injured the 27-year-old Tuesday, and he reverted to IR after clearing waivers Wednesday. Shepherd had his last in-game action in 2020 with Green Bay, playing primarily as a return man. In 14 career games, the wideout has returned 20 kicks for a total of 418 yards.

  • Reverts to IR

    Shepherd (undisclosed) reverted to the Chargers' injured reserve Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Shepherd went unclaimed after getting waived with an injury designation Tuesday. As a result, he is now in danger of missing the entire season unless he and the Chargers come to terms on an injury settlement at some point.

  • Waived with injury

    The Chargers waived/injured Shepherd (undisclosed) on Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Shepherd will end up on Los Angeles' injured reserve assuming he clears waivers. The nature of his health issue remains unclear, but if Shepherd does revert to IR, he'll be forced to miss the entire 2023 season, barring an injury settlement.

  • Dropped by Chargers

    Shepherd was waived by the Chargers on Monday.

    Analysis: Besides competing for a depth receiver role with the Chargers, Shepherd was also looking to earn returner opportunities. He ultimately came up short, but he will be a candidate to end up on the team's practice squad. The 27-year-old has not suited up for an NFL game since 2020 with the Packers.

  • Waived by Packers

    Shepherd was released by the Packers on Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With Allen Lazard (core) now healthy, Shepherd simply did not have an opportunity to do much from an offensive perspective, reinforced by the two snaps he played in Sunday's game against the Bears. The fact Shepherd was also dreadful as a special teams player certainly didn't help, as the 25-year-old only averaged 20.6 yards per kick return across 11 attempts, also coughing up a critical fumble in a pivotal loss to the Colts two weeks ago. It's possible the depth wideout could return to the…read more

  • Active Sunday

    Shepherd (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts.

    Analysis: Shepherd was a full practice participant the last two days of the week, so it's not much of a surprise he's suiting up Sunday. The 25-year-old should fill a depth role with the receiving corps back to full strength.

  • Officially questionable for Sunday

    Shepherd (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd practiced without limitations the last two days, but the Packers apparently want to evaluate his shoulder over the weekend before making a final decision on his status. Even if he's given a clean bill of health, however, Shepherd could end up as a healthy scratch if both Allen Lazard (core) and Equanimeous St. Brown (knee) play.

  • Back to full practice

    Shepherd (shoulder) logged a full practice session Thursday.

    Analysis: Shepherd was inactive for Green Bay's Week 10 matchup against the Jaguars, but improvement from limited to full practice participation between Wednesday and Thursday bodes well for his status. The North Dakota State product has recorded five receptions for 46 yards over six appearances this year, also making an impact on special teams with four kick-return attempts for a total of 89 yards and one punt return for six yards.

  • Limited practice Wednesday

    Shepherd (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd's making good progress, as he's practicing to start the week after making just one appearance at practice last week. If he's able to shake off this injury, he could be in line for a decent workload Sunday against the Colts depending on the statuses of Davante Adams (ankle) and Allen Lazard (core).

  • Won't play Sunday

    Shepherd (shoulder) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Shepherd came into the contest drawing a questionable tag after logging DNP/DNP/LP through three practice sessions this week. The North Dakota State product has played at least 25 percent of offensive snaps in five of his six games this season, so his absence will hurt the team's receiving depth. With Shepherd out, Equanimeous St. Brown and Malik Taylor stand to receive a slight uptick in snaps in Week 10.

  • Draws questionable tag

    Shepherd (shoulder) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd returned to practice in a limited capacity Friday after having missed the first two sessions of the week. The North Dakota State alum has handled at least 25 percent of offensive snaps in five of six appearances this year, and he'd stand to play a similar depth role against Jacksonville if cleared to suit up.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Shepherd (shoulder) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Shepherd has maintained a consistent role on offense over the last three weeks, playing at least 25 percent of the snaps in each game and recording two receptions for nine yards. This is a new injury for the second-year receiver and makes his status uncertain for this Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars. His practice capacity Thursday will provide a better idea about his Week 10 status.

  • One catch in win

    Shepherd caught his lone target for three yards in Thursday's 34-17 win over the 49ers.

    Analysis: Shepherd has just five catches all season. He'll likely continue to play a limited role barring multiple injuries to the receiving options ahead of him on Green Bay's depth chart.

  • Catches one pass

    Shepherd caught one pass for six yards in Sunday's loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Shepherd was on the field for about a quarter of the plays the Packers ran in Week 8, and that was not enough time for him to do anything notable in the box score. Shepherd has averaged 23 snaps per game since making his season debut in Week 3 and has totaled seven receptions for 43 yards. He is one of a few Packers receivers whose roster spot comes into question when Allen Lazard (abdomen) comes off injured reserve.

  • Nearly finds end zone

    Shepherd was targeted three times and caught two passes for 21 yards in Monday's victory over the Falcons.

    Analysis: Shepherd's first reception went for 19 yards, and he nearly found paydirt on his second catch but was brought down just inches from the goal line. Shepherd was on the field for a season-high 36 snaps Monday with both Davante Adams (hamstring) and Allen Lazard (abdomen) sidelined, and he could continue playing some sort of role until Lazard is back. However, the Packers rarely have more than three wideouts on the field, and if Adams returns following the team's Week 5 bye Shepherd would…read more

  • Set for primetime start

    Shepherd is on track to serve as one of Aaron Rodgers' top wide receivers during Monday's game against the Falcons, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd was only promoted to the active roster 10 days ago, but he now looks set to start across from Marquez Valdes-Scantling on Monday Night Football, with Davante Adams (hamstring) expected to be ruled out and Allen Lazard (abdomen) on injured reserve. Shepherd appeared in six games with the Packers last season, but he only had one catch for a single yard during that span. Green Bay also has Malik Taylor and Reggie Begelton on hand to mix in if they choose to deploy three-wide sets.

  • Promoted from practice squad

    Shepherd was promoted to the Packers' active roster Saturday, Jim Owczarski of the Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd will add some depth to a wide receiver corps that's likely to be without top option Davante Adams (hamstring), who is listed as doubtful. Even if Adams sits, Shepherd isn't expected to play a significant role in Week 3 against the Saints.

  • Joins practice squad

    The Packers signed Shepherd to the practice squad Sunday.

    Analysis: Although he failed to make the initial 53-man roster, Shepherd will remain in Green Bay as one of 14 practice squad members. The Packers decided to carry only five wideouts on the roster, so Shepherd could get an opportunity should any injuries arise.

  • Waived Saturday

    Shepherd was waived by the Packers on Saturday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Shepherd ended the 2019 campaign on the practice squad and it's entirely possible he could wind up there again to begin this season following Saturday's waive. Primarily a special teams player, it's unlikely Shepherd would be forced into any sort of major offensive snaps even if injuries were to whittle away at the team's depth.

  • Staying in Green Bay

    The Packers signed Shepherd to a contract Tuesday.

    Analysis: Shepherd will stay with the Packers heading into 2020 after finishing the 2019 season on their practice squad. The 24-year-old saw action in six games with the team in 2019, most notably finishing with minus-9 yards and a muffed punt in Week 6's game against the Lions.
