NMR is caused by the vibration of the non-zero spin vector of a nucleus. This vibrating nuclear spin produces a vibrating magnetic field.
The point of a Faraday cage is that it's made of a conductor, which responds to electric fields. Both a strong magnetostatic (DC) and Ac fields are different, and will barely be affected by the Faraday cage. (The cage may have some magnetic properties, but that's not what makes it a Faraday cage, and it's unlikely to have a significant impact on magnetic fields.)
