Leonard Pope had three receptions for 26 yards against the Patriots in Week 11.

Sometimes a new rookie quarterback can cause a tight end to get more looks, and together Pope and Jake O’Connell (three catches, 22 yards) were targeted 10 times. We’ll let you know if one of the mediocre duo emerges, but we won’t be holding our breath.

Chiefs signed seventh-round TE Jake O’Connell to a three-year contract.

O’Connell recorded 25 receptions for 258 yards as a Miami (Ohio) senior. Blessed with above average speed and hands, he’s in the mix to replace Tony Gonzalez. Expect Brad Cottam to win the job, but O’Connell may immediately be No. 2 on the depth chart.

Chiefs TE Jake O’Connell has caught fire in practice recently, according to KCChiefs.com’s Josh Looney.

O’Connell has scored three TDs over the last three days, with each score “going down as highlight material.” Rookie Tony Moeaki will be the Chiefs’ primary pass-catching tight end, but O’Connell can provide athletic depth.
