Canadian offensive lineman Shepley joins New York Giants as undrafted free agent

Canadian offensive lineman Dakoda Shepley joined the New York Jets as an undrafted free agent Saturday after being bypassed in the NFL draft.

“Excited to go to work as a New York Jet!” he tweeted Saturday.

The Jets took the only Canadian in the draft Friday, selecting defensive tackle Nathan Shepherd of Ajax, Ont., a defensive tackle from Fort Hays State, in the third round.

The six-foot-four, 305-pound Shepley, from Windsor, Ont., played his college football at the University of British Columbia  but worked out at Eastern Michigan’s pro day.
