Its actually his 7th season. Unfortunately, he was hurt last week, and has since been placed on IR.
He’s a statistical outlier. A little over half of 5 star recruits are drafted. Only about 40% of 5 star recruits stick around the NFL long enough to be considered a success.
Russell was undrafted, but has defied the odds and he’s hung in the league for 7 years.
Almost all former 5 star recruits that go undrafted are considered busts way before the draft. Very few finish at their original school, and even fewer get an invitation to training camp.
Shepard’s career at LSU never lived up to the hype coming out of HS, but he’s defied the odds by carving out a decent NFL career.
