Way Mike writes it, the Giants were bringing him back until Slayton signed?

He wasn't coming back after last year when he got a Mara scholarship to have 1 last non productive year (it seems like there were some ownership fingerprints on that one when he had zero ST value for a 5th WR). His contract expired and he was going to retire until his old teammate Mayfield talked him into signing there.

As a Giants fan I've seen a lot of incompetence over the last 13 years, but that section in the article didn't happen.

There was a few-day period where there was a lot of chatter on my end about the Giants brining back Shepard in response to the Slayton hold out. It may not have gotten past the discussion stage, in which case I jumped the gun by saying that it briefly happened. For that, I apologize. A lot of Giants chaos lands on my desk.

It's all good! Like I said above there's been a lot of incompetence in the organization, and if you're not a die hard I can see how everything just blends together into a slurry of stupid decisions.
