Sterling Shepard is expected to clear the concussion protocol according to Pat Shurmur, Ralph Vacchiano reports. (Ralph Vacchiano on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Shepard missed Week 2 while still in the protocol, and his return to the lineup would be a welcome sight. The Giants have operated with a skeleton crew at receiver with Golden Tate suspended and Cody Latimer and Bennie Fowler dealing with injuries. Shepard should be the number one option at wideout, but he’s likely to cede receptions to Saquon Barkley and Evan Engram. Daniel Jones will make his first start at quarterback this week, and it’s unclear what his comfort level with Shepard is heading into Week 3.
