The ex-Giants receiver, who battled injuries late in his New York tenure, tallied 10 receptions for 57 yards and a touchdown last year.
Sterling Shepard ’s reunion with former Oklahoma teammate Baker Mayfield took a bittersweet turn Monday when the Buccaneers released the wide receiver as the team narrows its roster down to 53 players,after Mayfield — whose career resurgence with the Bucs resulted in a three-year, $100 million contract extension in March — reached out to his friend and asked if he had more fuel in the tank.
The No. 40 overall pick by the Giants in 2016, Shepard spent eight seasons in New York, where he recorded 372 receptions for 4,095 yards and 23 touchdowns. He bid farewell to the team after the 2023 regular season. “The workout went well and I was happy we were able to get something done,” Shepard told The Post in June when he agreed to a one-year deal.
