Miami Dolphins Lee was selected by the
Miami Dolphins in the fifth round, 156th overall in the
2003 NFL draft. He went on to play two years for the Dolphins.
Green Bay Packers In the
2005 NFL season, Lee was signed by the
Green Bay Packers in
free agency. After the injury of
Bubba Franks, Lee gained more playing time. He finished the season fourth in
receiving (1st among tight ends) for the Packers. In November 2007, Lee signed a four-year contract extension with the Packers for $12 million. On November 18, 2007, Lee had the first multi-
touchdown game of his career as he caught two touchdown passes from
Brett Favre in a 31–17 victory over the
Carolina Panthers. Lee also found the
end zone in Favre's record setting day for "most passing yards" on December 16, 2007, vs. the
St. Louis Rams. Lee finished the
2007 season with 48 receptions for 575 yards and six touchdowns. He also caught Favre's final touchdown pass as a Packer during the
NFC Championship Game against the
New York Giants on January 20, 2008. His final career touchdown and his final reception as a Packer was a game-winning fourth-quarter touchdown in a must-win Week 17 victory over the
Chicago Bears, in which the Packers won 10–3. Had the Packers tied or lost that game, they would have missed the playoffs. Lee appeared in all four playoff games thereafter on the way to Green Bay's fourth-ever Super Bowl victory. On March 2, 2011, Lee was released by the Packers.
Philadelphia Eagles On July 29, 2011, Lee was signed to a one-year contract with the
Philadelphia Eagles. He was released during final roster cuts on September 3.
