Grounding the shield at both ends will create a ground loop, and therefore trouble. If the " JP4 Shell" in the drawing were only the connector shell, not connected to anything, then connecting to it would merely extend the screen right to the end. BUT you've added "Gnd" to the label, to indicate that it's grounded at that end, right? Draw a great looping line connecting the two "Gnd" labels. What do you have if the red connection is made? My preference is to ground screens at the driving end, and you've done that. No more is needed.
