Sterling Shepard (illness) is unlikely to play on Sunday against the Chiefs, according to Adam Schefter. The Giants reportedly wants to first test Shepard in pre-game warmups before making any determination. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

This could potentially be a major blow to fantasy owners, as Shepard made a strong play this weekend against a Chiefs team that allows the most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. If Shepard indeed misses the game, Eli Manning should be downgraded some, and Evan Engram should take a minor bump in value. Roger Lewis and Tavarres King would become desperation dart-throws.
