Cleveland Browns

He was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the fourth round (110th overall) of the 2000 NFL draft and went on to play six seasons for Cleveland.[3] During his time there, he caught 97 passes for 851 yards and seven touchdowns. He fumbled only once in his career - during his rookie season in 2000.

San Diego Chargers

As a free agent in the 2006 offseason a handful of teams were reportedly interested in Shea, including the Houston Texans, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Diego Chargers, San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks. On March 17, Shea signed a three-year contract with San Diego.[4] A back injury bothered him throughout the preseason and forced him to miss the team's first three regular season contests. On September 26, he was placed on season-ending injured reserve.

Shea was released after just one season in San Diego on March 2, 2007.
