Shaheen hauled in his lone target for a three-yard touchdown Sunday in the Dolphins' 43-17 win over the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
After playing no more than 40 percent of the offensive snaps in the Dolphins' first four games, Shaheen was all the way up to 57 percent Week 5. That was likely a byproduct of the Dolphins' top blocking tight end, Durham Smythe (knee), being sidelined, but Shaheen still took advantage of the extra work by reaching the end zone for the first time in 2020. Even if Smythe misses more time after the Dolphins' Week 6 bye, Shaheen likely won't ascend to fantasy relevance while Mike Gesicki is locked in as the team's top pass-catching tight end.

Shaheen (foot) was acquired by the Dolphins from the Bears on Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old was drafted during the second round by the Bears in 2017, but he's played only 27 games in three seasons and has 26 catches for 249 yards and four touchdowns. Shaheen likely won't be guaranteed a roster spot given his track record with injuries, but a strong camp could put him in the mix for the No. 2 job at tight end with Durham Smythe and Chandler Cox.

General manager Ryan Pace said Tuesday that he expects Shaheen (foot) to be on the Bears' roster when training camp starts, Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shaneen will enter the last year of his rookie deal in 2020. The 2017 second-round pick has played in just 27 of a possible 48 contests in his career, during which time he's caught 26 passes for 249 yards and four touchdowns. Shaheen missed the last eight games of 2019 on injured reserve, so it will be imperative for him to return to full health for offseason workouts.

Shaheen (foot) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
That's now two Bears tight ends on injured reserve, as Shaheen joins Trey Burton (calf) with a season-ending injury. The 2017 second-round pick has been a massive disappointment, playing in just 14 games over the past two seasons while catching only 14 passes for 122 receiving yards and a touchdown during that time span. J.P. Holtz, Jesper Horsted and Bradley Sowell are the most likely recipients to pick up additional playing time, with Horsted actually scoring a touchdown on his only reception in Thursday's Thanksgiving Day win over the Lions.

Shaheen (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
The Bears will be without both Shaheen and Ben Braunecker (concussion) for Thanksgiving Day, leaving J.P. Holtz, Jesper Horsted and Bradley Sowell as the team's available tight ends. Holtz has appeared in nine games this season and has averaged a shade under 20 offensive snaps per game, but he's only notched two catches for 23 yards. Meanwhile, Horsted and Sowell have suited up for just four games combined.

Shaheen (foot) was listed as a non-participant in Tuesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Since being a healthy scratch in Week 10, Shaheen hasn't practiced and is trending toward a fourth straight absence. If he's unable to get onto the field for Wednesday's session, the Bears will likely be led by J.P. Holtz, Jesper Horsted and Bradley Sowell at tight end Thursday against the Lions since Ben Braunecker (concussion) isn't expected to play.

Shaheen (foot) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report.
EDGE Analysis
Shaheen was a healthy scratch Week 10 and hasn't practiced in the meantime due to a foot injury. Elsewhere in the tight end room, Trey Burton (calf) is on injured reserve, and Ben Braunecker has been diagnosed with a concussion, leaving J.P. Holtz, Jesper Horsted and Bradley Sowell as the sole healthy bodies.

Shaheen (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Shaheen didn't practice again this week and will miss his third straight game due to the foot injury. Ben Braunecker is set to serve as the Bears' No. 1 tight end with Trey Burton (calf) on injured reserve.

Shaheen (foot) did not practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Shaheen sat out Week 11's loss to the Rams due to a foot injury, and he has yet to make tangible progress in his recovery. With Trey Burton (calf) now on injured reserve, the Bears will be forced to rely on Ben Braunecker as the No. 1 option at tight end if Shaheen misses any more time.

Shaheen (foot) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
Shaheen was added to the injury report Thursday as a non-participant and was unable to retake the practice field Friday. The 25-year-old was a healthy scratch for Week 10, so Ben Braunecker should again serve as the Bears' No. 2 tight end.
