Sam Shields misses first Packers' practice coming out of bye
Green Bay Packers cornerback Sam Shields (concussion) will not practice on Monday.
Shields is "improving," according to head coach Mike McCarthy, but it's not a promising sign coming out of a bye week. The 28-year-old defensive back is likely leaning towards the wrong side of questionable for a Week 5 matchup against the New York Giants on Sunday night.
Our models tentatively expect Shields to return in Week 5, pegging him for 3.98 tackles, 0.62 pass deflections and 0.12 interceptions versus the Giants.
