Shepard (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, will go through pregame tests before the Giants determine whether he'll be available to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
As expected, the Giants are viewing Shepard as a game-day decision after he was added to the injury report Thursday due to the hamstring issue that sidelined him Weeks 4 and 5. So long as he fares well in the workout, Shepard should avoid the inactive list, but it's unclear how effective he might be playing through the injury. Even if less than 100 percent, Shepard's presence would be a welcome one for a Giants pass-catching group that's expected to be missing Saquon Barkley (ankle), Kenny Golladay (knee) and Kadarius Toney (ankle).
