A member of the New England Patriots for six seasons, fullback James Develin doesn’t often get the attention of the cameras or the stat sheet, but has become a valuable blocker for the running backs that have passed through Foxboro during his tenure.

Once in awhile, he sneaks in a pass or two like he did against the Carolina Panthers two weeks ago.

For his career, Develin may only have one touchdown pass to just 16 total receptions, but one Patriots fan wanted to give him a tribute video for all of his hard work that may go unnoticed to the casual observer.

YouTube user Von Wolfwood put together the following highlight reel of Develin’s time in New England since he first arrived in 2012, a career that has seen his teams play in the AFC Championship at minimum, every season.
