Birds complete Sheppard trade

The Eagles made it official today and traded CB Lito Sheppard to the New York Jets in exchange for a fifth round pick in the 2009 draft and a conditional pick in the 2010 draft.

A first round draft pick of the Eagles in 2002, Sheppard notched 18 interceptions, including three returned for touchdowns, in 93 regular season games (61 starts) while with the team. He also garnered Pro Bowl honors following the 2004 and 2006 seasons.
