Just hours before a great matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard found his name on the inactive list on Sunday morning. Shepard, who appeared on the injury report on Saturday due to migraines, did not receive clearance to play in Week 11.
It's a tough blow for those in DFS leagues. Shepard entered the weekend as one of the best value plays on the slate and would have seen a significantly high ownership percentage this week. Now tih Shepard out, DFS users must quickly find a replacement. We'll want to stay away from the Giants' skill position players. Instead, look at Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Jeremy Maclin as a quality DFS value wide receiver.
