Shepard signed to Jets practice squad; could play Sunday vs. Packers.

Signed to Jets practice squad after Omar Cooper Jr. suffered a sprained ankle; worked out for the team Tuesday and could play Sunday against the Packers. Shepard has prior chemistry with Jets QB Geno Smith from their time together with the Giants and live near each other in Florida where they have worked out together. Shepard acknowledged he needs to get up to speed on the Jets playbook and get back into game shape after spending the past year running routes on air by himself, with only five days at Texans training camp as recent competitive work.
