The Chicago Bears added another veteran tight end in James O’Shaughnessy, who signed a one-year deal with the team on Monday.
O’Shaughnessy, a former fifth-round pick by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2015, has played seven NFL seasons with the Chiefs (2015-16) and Jacksonville Jaguars (2017-21). During that span, he has 112 catches for 1,108yards and three touchdowns.
There’s an obvious connection between O’Shaughnessy and new Bears general manager Ryan Poles, who was a college scouting director in Kansas City when the Chiefs drafted O’Shaughnessy.
