It's rumored that Lito Sheppard is being dropped from the Jets' base defense for Sunday's AFC Championship Game.
Sheppard would be replaced at right corner by Dwight Lowery. The Jets figure to be in the nickel for most of the day anyway, but beat writer Rich Cimini says Lito may be relegated all the way to the dime. This confirms that Sheppard, who appeared in four Championship Games with the Eagles, is among the more overrated corners in the league. Source: New York Daily News
