Shepard (Achilles) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Less than nine months removed from tearing his left Achilles' tendon, Shepard already has been activated from the PUP list and said he expects to suit up Week 1 in Tennessee. After a 2021 season in which the Giants cycled through numerous receivers beyond their top core, all of Kenny Golladay, Shepard, Kadarius Toney (leg) and rookie Wan'Dale Robinson appear as if they'll be available this weekend. Confirmation on Shepard's status still may not come until 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.
