News

  • Joins Vikings' practice squad

    O'Shaughnessy signed with Minnesota's practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy has 80 games of NFL experience under his belt, split between the Chiefs and Jaguars. The 30-year-old tight end could be called upon to provide depth behind trade acquisition T.J. Hockenson.

  • Gets workout with Cleveland

    O'Shaughnessy (undisclosed) had a tryout with the Browns on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy signed a one-year contract with the Bears in April, but he was released Aug. 30 with a non-football illness designation. Now apparently back to full health, O'Shaughnessy is working to find a new team. The Browns placed Jesse James (biceps) on IR last Tuesday and currently only have two tight ends on their active roster.

  • Let go with NFI designation

    The Bears released O'Shaughnessy with a non-football illness designation Tuesday, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy appeared a fair candidate to secure a depth role in Chicago's tight end room, but he ultimately couldn't earn a spot on the team's initial 53-man roster due to an unknown aliment. The 2015 fifth-round pick appeared in 22 games over the past two seasons with Jacksonville, catching 52 of 72 targets for 506 yards, so once healthy, he figures to garner attention in free agency.

  • Released by Chicago

    The Bears released O'Shaughnessy on Tuesday, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy appeared to be candidate to secure a depth role in Chicago's right end room, but he ultimately couldn't earn a spot on the initial 53-man roster. Once the Bears open up further roster spots, it's possible O'Shaughnessy could end up rejoining the team. At the moment, Cole Kmet and Ryan Griffin are the only tight ends on Chicago's roster.

  • Targeted once

    O'Shaughnessy posted a four-yard reception in the Bears' 21-20 win against the Browns on Saturday.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy hauled in his lone target late in the first half when the Bears brought in their backups. With Ryan Griffin playing earlier with the starters, it's possible that O'Shaughnessy starts the season as the Bears' No. 3 tight end.

  • Corrals lone target

    O'Shaughnessy caught one pass for 16 yards in the Bears' 27-11 preseason win over the Seahawks' on Thursday.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy took the field on the second drive, right after the Bears took their first-team offense off the field. His reception came from backup quarterback Trevor Siemian. The tight end will likely continue to battle with Ryan Griffin for the No. 2 tight end role behind Cole Kmet.

  • Back on practice field

    O'Shaughnessy (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Analysis: After missing last week's game due to the undisclosed injury, O'Shaughnessy's return to practice may put him on track to appear in Thursday's preseason game against the Seahawks.

  • Unlikely to play Saturday

    O'Shaughnessy (undisclosed) isn't expected to suit up for Saturday's preseason opener against the Chiefs, Alyssa Barbieri of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Among a number of players battling injuries, O'Shaughnessy was reported to be one of those who is not expected to face the Chiefs. Currently third on the Bears' depth chart at tight end, he's competing for a backup role with Ryan Griffin (undisclosed).

  • May be useful blocker

    O'Shaughnessy can seal off the edge as a run blocker while occasionally moving into the slot, Parker Hurley of BearGogglesOn reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy will likely slot in as the third tight end on the Bears' depth chart behind Cole Kmet and Ryan Griffin. It's unlikely he'll be selected in most fantasy drafts. However, he was on his way to a career year last year with the Jaguars, when he caught 24 passes for 244 yards in seven games. Should he be forced into a prominent role at some point, he could be a capable receiver. Otherwise, it would appear that most of his snaps will see him function as a blocker.

  • Signed by Chicago

    The Bears signed O'Shaughnessy to a one-year contract Monday.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy joins a tight end room led by Cole Kmet alongside Ryan Griffin and Jesper Horsted. The former was limited to just seven appearances with Jacksonville last season, as he dealt with hip and ankle injuries, but he now appears fully healthy. In those seven contests, O'Shaughnessy secured 24 of 34 targets for 244 yards, but he was held without a touchdown.

  • Visits Bears

    O'Shaughnessy (hip) visited the Bears on Monday, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy only appeared in seven games during the 2021 season, missing the last two weeks with a hip injury and previously sitting out with an ankle issue. The 29-year-old recorded 24 catches on 34 targets for 244 yards, which would have put him on a path for career highs had he played a full season.

  • Won't play Week 18

    O'Shaughnessy (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy will be sidelined by the hip injury for the second straight game to finish the season. He was limited to seven games in 2021 and caught 24 of 34 targets for 244 yards and zero touchdowns. He'll turn 30 years old in mid-January and is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent during the offseason.

  • Absent from practice Thursday

    O'Shaughnessy (hip) didn't participate in Thursday's practice session.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy has now missed the first two days of practice ahead of Sunday's Week 18 matchup against the Colts. Unless he returns to the practice field in some capacity Friday, the tight end could be forced to miss a second straight game to close out the regular season.

  • Doesn't practice Wednesday

    O'Shaughnessy (hip) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy was a non-participant in practice throughout last week before being ruled out ahead of Sunday's loss to New England. He'll presumably need to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday if he hopes to play in this weekend's season finale against Indianapolis.

  • Won't play Week 17

    O'Shaughnessy (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy was unable to practice due to the hip injury this week and won't be available for Sunday's contest. Chris Manhertz (illness) and Jacob Hollister (illness) are both on the reserve/COVID-19 list, leaving Luke Farrell and Kahale Warring as Jacksonville's remaining available tight ends.

  • Misses another practice Thursday

    O'Shaughnessy (hip) remained sidelined at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Thursday's absence was O'Shaughnessy's second in a row due to this hip injury. Friday's injury report should help clarify the state of Jacksonville's tight end room, as the team is currently dealing with multiple injuries and a COVID-19 outbreak at the position ahead of Sunday's trip to New England.

  • Misses practice with hip injury

    O'Shaughnessy didn't practice Wednesday due to a hip injury.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy's injury-related absence from practices comes at an inconvenient time while Jacksonville has four of its other tight ends on the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of a trip to New England this weekend. Among the bunch, Jacob Hollister and Dan Arnold (knee) would be most likely to see targets if they're able to play and O'Shaughnessy isn't. Kahale Warring is Jacksonville's only healthy tight end who isn't on the list.

  • More decent production

    O'Shaughnessy caught all four of his targets for 49 yards during Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy has caught exactly four passes in three straight games as he continues to show a solid rapport with rookie QB Trevor Lawrence. O'Shaughnessy is averaging 3.4 catches and 34.4 receiving yards in five games since returning from injured reserve Week 12, so his fantasy outlook remains quite limited.

    Published: Mon, Dec 27 at 2:00pm by Rotowire.com

  • Leads pass catchers Sunday

    O'Shaughnessy caught all four of his targets for 60 yards during Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Texans.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy led Jacksonville in receiving yards and nearly topped his yardage total from the previous three games combined (63 yards). The 29-year-old doesn't offer much fantasy potential given the inconsistency of rookie QB Trevor Lawrence, and Sunday's performance is likely close to the ceiling for the tight end's production.

    Published: Sun, Dec 19 at 2:35pm by Rotowire.com

  • Secures four catches

    O'Shaughnessy caught four of six targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 20-0 loss at Tennessee.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy tied for third on the team in targets and was Jacksonville's only tight end to play double-digit offensive snaps. The 29-year-old has a healthy 17 targets and a touchdown in three games since returning from injured reserve, but he has only nine catches and 63 receiving yards to show for his involvement in the passing game.

  • Leads team in targets

    O'Shaughnessy caught two of six targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 37-7 loss to the Rams.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy's six targets led Jacksonville's pass catchers, but it didn't add up to much production. The 29-year-old continues to operate as the team's No.1 tight end with Dan Arnold (knee) on injured reserve, but he has a low floor for fantasy purposes given the struggles of quarterback Trevor Lawrence and the offense as a whole.

  • Catches three passes in return

    O'Shaughnessy caught three of five targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Falcons.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old played 59 of 73 offensive snaps in his first game since Week 2, which was in part due to starter Dan Arnold exiting early with a knee injury. Arnold is set to miss at least the next month with a sprained MCL, so O'Shaughnessy now finds himself atop Jacksonville's depth chart at tight end. O'Shaughnessy has nine receptions for 77 yards in his two full-game appearances this season, so he clearly has a decent rapport with rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence and could have limited…read more

  • Poised for starting role

    O'Shaughnessy is in line to serve as the Jaguars' top tight end after Dan Arnold (knee) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy was activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's Week 12 loss to Atlanta, and he hauled in three of five targets for 29 yards. He should see an expanded role across the next several games because Arnold carries a recovery timetable of 4-to-6 weeks after sustaining a sprained MCL.

  • Activated from IR

    The Jaguars activated O'Shaughnessy (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: He's expected to make his first appearance since Week 2 when the Jaguars host the Falcons on Sunday. While O'Shaughnessy opened the season as Jacksonville's top tight end, he now figures to slot in behind Dan Arnold, at least when it comes to target/route volume.

  • Should return Sunday

    O'Shaughnessy (ankle) is expected to be activated from injured reserve and play Sunday against Atlanta, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy was designated to return from injured reserve Nov. 17, and he's poised to return to game action Week 12 after missing the past eight games. Dan Arnold was acquired from the Panthers and has taken over as the Jags' starting tight end, meaning O'Shaughnessy may need to settle for the role of No. 2 at the position.

  • Back at practice

    The Jaguars designated O'Shaughnessy (ankle) for return from injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy thus is in line to rejoin the Jaguars for practice Wednesday as the team begins prep for its Week 11 matchup with the 49ers. Given that O'Shaughnessy hasn't played since Week 2 due to the high-ankle sprain, the Jaguars may want to see him turn in more than one week of practices before adding him back to the 53-man roster. Since O'Shaughnessy sustained the injury, the Jaguars acquired Dan Arnold from the Panthers and installed him as their starting tight end. Arnold is unlikely to…read more

  • Lands on IR

    The Jaguars placed O'Shaughnessy (ankle) on injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: With a high-ankle sprain set to sideline O'Shaughnessy for at least three games, added tight-end snaps are on tap for Chris Manhertz, Luke Farrell and perhaps Jacob Hollister. None of the trio profiles as a reliable fantasy lineup option until or unless one of them develops a clear rapport with rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence.

  • Out indefinitely

    O'Shaughnessy was diagnosed with a high ankle sprain Monday and will be out indefinitely, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy was operating as the Jaguars' No. 1 tight end to start the season. He caught one pass for 26 yards before leaving Sunday's contest. Chris Manhertz and Luke Farrell are likely to see increased roles while the 29-year-old is sidelined.

  • Injures ankle Sunday

    O'Shaughnessy (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Broncos, Hays Carlyon of 1010 AM WJXL Jacksonville reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy caught one pass for 26 yards before suffering an ankle injury in the first half of Week 2. If he is unable to return, expect Chris Manhertz and Luke Farrell to see extended snaps the rest of the game.

  • Operates as No. 1 tight end

    O'Shaughnessy started Sunday's 37-21 loss to the Texans and caught six of eight targets for 48 yards.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old was expected to open the season as Jacksonville's No. 2 tight end after Chris Manhertz signed during the offseason, but O'Shaughnessy had a strong showing in the preseason to earn the starting nod. Manhertz did manage a touchdown on his lone target, but O'Shaughnessy played 80 percent of the offensive snaps and benefitted from the Jaguars facing a 24-point halftime deficit (Trevor Lawrence attempted 51 passes on the day). Regardless, it was an encouraging level of production for…read more

  • Strong finish to preseason

    O'Shaughnessy caught all three of his targets for 27 yards during Sunday's preseason win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy played only 13 offensive snaps but was encouragingly a regular target of rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence in the first quarter. The 29-year-old tight end wasn't targeted in either of the first two exhibition contests, so it was a welcome sight to see some production with the first-team offense. O'Shaughnessy appears to be Jacksonville's top pass-catching tight end but is likely No. 2 on the depth chart, while Chris Manhertz, who signed as a free agent in March, should enter Week…read more

  • Re-ups in Jacksonville

    O'Shaughnessy re-signed with the Jaguars on Wednesday, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaugnessy handled the No. 2 tight end role for the Jaguars last season behind Tyler Eifert, averaging 31 snaps per contest while recording a 38-262-0 line across 15 contests. Eifert is now a free agent, but the Jaguars signed tight end Chris Manhertz to a two-year, $7.25 million contract Tuesday. O'Shaughnessy looks poised to play second fiddle once again, though the expected addition of quarterback Trevor Lawrence should elevate the Jacksonville offense as a whole.

  • One catch Week 17

    O'Shaughnessy caught his lone target for 10 yards during Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old played only five fewer snaps than starter Tyler Eifert, but much like the rest of the season, neither tight end was significantly involved in Jacksonville's passing game. O'Shaughnessy caught 28 of 38 targets for 262 yards and zero touchdowns in 15 games this season as Jacksonville's secondary tight end, and he'll become an unrestricted free agent in the offseason.

  • Two more receptions

    O'Shaughnessy caught two of three targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 41-17 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old played 26 offensive snaps as the No. 2 tight end and had his typical production. O'Shaughnessy should finish the season in much the same role in Week 17's game at Indianapolis.

  • Catches two passes

    O'Shaughnessy caught both targets for 14 yards during Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old tied and set season highs with four catches for 41 yards on six targets Week 13, but he played a minor role in the passing game Sunday. O'Shaughnessy should continue to operate as Jacksonville's secondary tight end and won't be on the fantasy radar while in that role.

  • Totals 41 yards

    O'Shaughnessy caught four of six targets for 41 yards during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old had a 24-yard reception on the first play of the game, which nearly equaled his yardage total from the previous three games combined. Mike Glennon delivered 13 targets to the Jaguars' tight ends Sunday, with Tyler Eifert having a team-high six receptions. O'Shaughnessy remains Jacksonville's secondary tight end and doesn't offer much fantasy potential, but he could have a bigger role down the stretch if Glennon continues to rely on the position.

  • Catches two passes

    O'Shaughnessy caught two of four targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 27-25 loss to Cleveland.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old wasn't involved in the passing game until the fourth quarter, when he was targeted four times on the final drive. O'Shaughnessy played 24 of 65 offensive snaps and should remain Jacksonville's secondary tight end as long as Tyler Eifert avoids injury.

  • Suiting up Sunday

    O'Shaughnessy (knee) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy will return to action after a one-game hiatus. With Tyler Eifert (concussion) also ready to go, O'Shaughnessy figures to operate as the No. 2 tight end again. He presents limited fantasy value with just 16 receptions for 156 yards and no touchdowns through nine games.

  • Won't play Sunday

    O'Shaughnessy (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy's knee injury will force him to miss his first game of the season. The backup tight end's absence could provide a slight increase in targets for Tyler Eifert (shoulder).

  • Sitting out practice

    O'Shaughnessy (knee) didn't suit up in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury.

    Analysis: It's unclear how O'Shaughnessy suffered the injury, as he played at least 40 percent of offensive snaps in all nine games this season, including last week's loss to Green Bay. The fact that the veteran tight end missed practice completely is evidence that the issue could be serious. If he's forced to miss Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, Ben Ellefson would elevate to the team's No. 2 tight end behind Tyler Eifert.

  • Garners one target

    O'Shaughnessy failed to catch his lone target during Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old was minimally involved in the passing game Sunday, and he was also called for a holding penalty. O'Shaughenssy should continue to work as Jacksonville's No. 2 tight end behind Tyler Eifert, a role which carries little to no fantasy value.

  • Returns to secondary role

    O'Shaughnessy caught one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's loss to the Texans.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old caught all three of his targets for 32 yards during his Week 7 start, but Tyler Eifert (neck) returned as Jacksonville's top tight end after the bye week. O'Shaughnessy played only five fewer offensive snaps, but Eifert was significantly more involved in the passing game with four catches for 48 yards.

  • Three catches in Sunday's start

    O'Shaughnessy caught all three of his targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 39-29 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: The tight end tied Laviska Shenault for second on the team in receptions, as the entire Jaguars' passing game struggled while Gardner Minshew was under consistent pressure. With Jacksonville headed into its bye, O'Shaughnessy could find himself back in a depth role against the Texans in Week 9 if Tyler Eifert (neck) has enough time to get healthy.

  • Will start for injured Eifert

    O'Shaughnessy is slated to start at tight end Sunday against the Chargers with Tyler Eifert (neck) ruled out for the contest, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: O'Shaughnessy previously took on the brunt of the work at tight end in Jacksonville's loss to Detroit last week, when Eifert aggravated a neck injury that limited him to just five offensive snaps. Following Eifert's departure, O'Shaughnessy proceeded to play 48 of the Jaguars' 64 offensive snaps (75 percent), but he drew just one target on the day. Another hefty workload likely awaits O'Shaughnessy on Sunday, but he may be relegated primarily to a blocking role.

  • Fails to catch lone target

    O'Shaughnessy failed to catch his only target during Sunday's 34-16 loss to Detroit.

    Analysis: Tyler Eifert (neck) exited early due to injury, but O'Shaughnessy had minimal involvement in the passing game despite playing 75 percent of offensive snaps. Even if Eifert is sidelined for an extended period, O'Shaughnessy may not be a viable fantasy option given his inconsistent work in the passing game.

  • Secures three receptions

    O'Shaughnessy caught all three of his targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 30-14 loss to Houston.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old saw a small bump in playing time with Tyler Eifert (neck) exiting during the fourth quarter, but he still played only 33 offensive snaps to Eifert's 46. O'Shaughnessy has played between 40 percent and 51 percent of offensive snaps while catching 12 of 14 targets for 115 yards through five games this season, which leaves him off the fantasy radar.

  • Catches one pass

    O'Shaughnessy caught one of two targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 33-25 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old had his longest reception of the season in garbage time to help set up a late field goal, but he otherwise was barely involved in the passing game despite playing 35 offensive snaps. Tyler Eifert caught two of six targets for 22 yards on 46 snaps, but he exited during the fourth quarter to be evaluated for a concussion. O'Shaughnessy could have some streaming appeal should Eifert miss any time, though there's hardly any guarantee he'd have a worthwhile role in the aerial attack.

  • More involved Week 2

    O'Shaughnessy caught all four of his targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old and starter Tyler Eifert combined for only two targets in the season opener, and they mirrored each other's workload again in Week 2 (three catches for 36 yards), though Eifert also had a touchdown. The pair are splitting playing time early on this season, and unless O'Shaughnessy ends up claiming a significantly larger role, he's unlikely to be fantasy relevant.

  • Sees one target

    O'Shaughnessy failed to catch his lone target during Sunday's 27-20 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old was listed as the team's No. 1 tight end on the first unofficial depth chart of the season, but Tyler Eifert received the start and outsnapped him, 28-20, in the opener. Neither player found much involvement in the passing game, as Eifert caught his only target for eight yards. O'Shaughnessy seems unlikely to find consistent production as the secondary tight end in a Jacksonville aerial attack that hasn't emphasized the position in recent years.

  • Sits atop depth chart

    O'Shaughnessy is listed as Jacksonville's No. 1 tight end on the first depth chart of the season, John Reid of the Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Tyler Eifert signed as a free agent in the spring and was expected to enter the season as the team's top tight end, but it's O'Shaughnessy who receives top billing heading into Week 1. The 28-year-old caught 14 of 20 targets for 153 yards and two touchdowns last year before suffering a torn ACL during Week 5. O'Shaughnessy was activated from the PUP list in mid-August and appears fully healthy, and he's apparently continued to build on his rapport with QB Gardner Minshew.

  • Removed from PUP list

    O'Shaughnessy (knee) was removed from the PUP list Wednesday, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

    Analysis: The veteran tight end is coming back from an ACL tear he suffered in October. O'Shaughnessy will now need to compete for a roster spot, likely hoping to win a blocking role behind presumptive starter Tyler Eifert.

  • Lands on PUP list

    O'Shaughnessy was placed on the active/physically unable to perform list Saturday.

    Analysis: This doesn't come as much of a surprise given the tight end tore his ACL in October, although reports seem to indicate O'Shaughnessy should be available come the start of the season. If the 28-year-old returns in the near future, he'll be tasked with an uphill battle to regain his starting spot, likely having to unseat both Tyler Eifert and Josh Oliver for significant playing time.

  • Continuing rehab

    O'Shaughnessy (knee) is progressing well in his rehab from ACL surgery in October, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old was enjoying the best campaign of his career through five games in 2019 with 14 catches for 153 yards and two touchdowns, but he torn his ACL during Week 5 and was lost for the season. O'Shaughnessy appears on track to be ready for the start of the regular season, but it's unclear if he'll be fully cleared for the start of training camp next month. Tyler Eifert signed as a free agent in March and is expected to be the starter, while O'Shaughnessy, Josh Oliver and rookie Tyler…read more
