THE FACTS: Russell Shepard is a second-year wide receiver out of LSU who led the Buccaneers in special teams tackles in 2014. Shepard was undrafted in 2013 and spent his first training camp with the Philadelphia Eagles, but was cut prior to the start of the regular season. The Buccaneers called the following day and he’s been in Tampa ever since. Shepard originally committed to LSU as a quarterback. He widely considered to be the best dual-threat QB in the country as a high school senior in 2009.

Some guys just takes them a while to get it sorted out. Everyone does not come into College and make a big splash or the NFL. Some people take a while but when they get it going they do good. Good luck to him!

The dude has good character! He could easily sit back and blame the world for not living up to the crazy unrealistic hype, but he doesn't. He is busting his butt and doing all he can to be successful and make the best of his opportunities. Much respect!

I really like the fact that players who can't crack the starting lineup at LSU, make NFL teams; says so much for the program

No, but obviously a lot of people, like you, don't realize that he played on a talented receiving corp. Shepard just couldn't crack the starting lineup at LSU. He's contributing to the Bucs on special teams; something he learned at LSU:
quote:

Q: Did you have any previous experience playing special teams?
A: “I did my last year at LSU and I hated it but a lot of people don’t realize – I played in a talented receiver room. My last two years of college I had 13, 14 catches. I played with Odell Beckham, who starts in the NFL. I played with Rueben Randle, who starts in the NFL. I played with Jarvis Landry, who starts in the NFL. I learned sometimes you have to be able to play special teams just to contribute to the team.”

The part about the business he started is what you should pay attention to. Shep and his family will become wealthy with Shep Boys Trucking. Four trucks that they own is going to make them some cash.

Very impressed with Shep's investment and utilizing his family to run a family business. Every year he stays in the league, that investment capability will pay off.

Very encouraged at this kid and his family. I'm pulling for him in both endeavors.
