Prior to his selection in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL Draft by the Oakland Raiders, he played college football for the University of Richmond Spiders.

Shields was placed on injured reserve, along with new wide receiver Drew Carter, FB Oren O'Neal, and CB John Bowie. He was waived on July 29, 2009.
