Sheppard Reports To Eagles' Camp
3rd May, 2008 - 11:05 am
ESPN - Cornerback Lito Sheppard reported to Philadelphia's mandatory mini-camp on Friday, ending rumors that he might hold out until the team either trades him or gives him a new contract, according to the Associated Press.

The two-time Pro Bowler found himself on the trading block this offseason after the Eagles signed free agent defensive back Asante Samuel.

"We all know the situation at hand," Sheppard told reporters Friday. "It still stands unresolved, but I'm here. I'm here to practice and that's what I'm focused on right now. That's pretty much it."

He is currently signed with Philadelphia through the 2011 season, and the team doesn't have a history of tolerating disgruntled players. [READ]
