Sterling Shepard will be on the Giants sideline Sunday in the role of cheerleader, and not just for his teammates.
As somebody who played for the last Giants team to reach the playoffs — and who remembers the late-season energy at MetLife Stadium — the injured wide receiver is imploring the home crowd to again be heard.
With a victory over the Colts, the Giants will reach the playoffs for the first time in six seasons. The Giants haven’t clinched a playoff berth on their home turf since the 2011 season, when they beat the Cowboys in the regular-season finale. Shepard, who tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in September and underwent season-ending surgery, said it has been bittersweet watching the Giants reach this point.
“It’s tough, but you just have to kind of reframe your way of thinking and I want to help these guys in any way that I can. Anything I can do to help them on Sundays, that is the reason I am here every day, just for them to bounce ideas off of me, whether it’s questions they have about what they should do on the field, you never know.”
