Lito Decorian Sheppard (born April 8, 1981) is an American football coach and former player.

He was selected by the Philadelphia Eagles in the first round of the 2002 NFL draft after playing college football for the Florida Gators.

[2] Sheppard had eighteen interceptions in twenty-nine games as a junior and senior, and led the Vikings to an undefeated season and a state championship in 1998.

In the Eagles Wild Card playoff game on January 7 against the New York Giants, Sheppard dislocated his elbow.

In the 2008 offseason, the Philadelphia Eagles signed former New England Patriots cornerback Asante Samuel, which fueled speculation that Sheppard was available via trade.

During the 2008 season, Sheppard saw much reduced action due to good performances by starting corners Asante Samuel and Sheldon Brown.

[11] Sheppard was signed by the Oakland Raiders on August 26, 2011, released during the final cuts on September 3, and then re-signed by the team on October 31.

[12] In 2017, Sheppard became the defense coach for the James Weldon Johnson Trojans and won many games with them.
