Andrew East is not the type of NFL player who is popular with the football-watching public. Although he turned professional in 2015, he is not really known in the football community because of his special position on the pitch. Every team in the league has a specialist longline player who represents them, and East stands out as one of the NFL’s finest players.

In his short time in the league, the athlete was able to leave a mark. He has represented several teams in the NFL, beginning in 2015 when he signed with the Kansas City Chiefs after losing that same year. During his career, he partnered with notable teams such as the Seattle Seahawks, Oakland Raiders (twice), Los Angeles Ram, and Jacksonville Jaguars.

His contract with the Seahawks started in January4, 2016 and ended on March 24, 2016. The following month, on April 5, 2016, he was signed by the Oakland Raiders. Unfortunately, the contract only survived four months. His next stop was the Los Angeles Ram football team. Like previous deals, his contract with the Rams ran from March 13, 2017 to May 3, 2017, which saw him return to the Raiders for the second time. The Raiders eventually waived Andrew East on April 9, 2018, after which he was signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars on June 14, 2018. Sadly, the Jaguars waived the NFL bid on July 31, 2018.
