2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Saints brought in Shepherd to help replace their significant losses on the defensive interior. The 2018 third-round pick's production and playing time steadily improved over the past five years with the Jets, accumulating a career-high 33 tackles in 2018. Shepherd now has an opportunity to carve out an even larger role in New Orleans alongside Khalen Saunders, Bryan Bresee and Malcolm Roach.
