Former Giants star Sterling Shepard reveals details on team's culture amid fallout from Daniel Jones' exit

Emmanuel Acho reacts to the New York Giants releasing QB Daniel Jones after six seasons.

Quarterback Daniel Jones' tumultuous tenure with the New York Giants came to an end this week. The franchise benched the 2019 first round draft pick, before ultimately granting Jones' request to be released.

The decision to part ways with Jones was described as mutual agreement, with Giants president and co-owner John Mara saying moving on from Jones "would be best for him and for the team." However, the move by the Giants was met with some criticism. 

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepherd became the latest former Giants' player to share his thoughts amid the fallout. Shepherd suggested there was room for improvement as it relates to his former team's culture.

"When it comes to the culture and everything like that, I’ve gotten a chance to see the way things are done on a different hand, but I think there could be maybe a little bit of work there," Shepard told the New York Post.

"It’s just different, in so many different ways and so many different levels. When it goes down to the small things, what you can do in the building as a player, the way you’re able to communicate and be hand-in-hand with the coaches, it’s just a lot of different things I kinda picked up on being there for so long. Even down to the training staff or the weight coaches and some of the different stuff that we do here, it’s a difference."
