This offseason, the New England Patriots were able to bolster their depth at the tight end position with the acquisition of James O’Shaughnessy. For the past two seasons, O’Shaughnessy has been playing with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs drafted O’Shaughnessy in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft. Even though he wasn’t a huge factor for Chiefs on offense, he provided a lot of value to the team. On a run-heavy team, O’Shaughnessy was a good blocking tight end in run formations. Also, he was an excellent player for them on special teams.
On the Chiefs, O’Shaughnessy was teammates with Travis Kelce.
