Washington Redskins Keasey signed with the
Washington Redskins as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2005. He was offered a contract after a successful mini-camp tryout at the invitation of Redskins defensive coordinator
Gregg Williams. Williams' son, Blake, was a college teammate of Keasey. Keasey went on to make the initial regular season 53 man roster as a reserve
linebacker. He later participated on the Redskins
practice squad.
San Francisco 49ers In 2006, Keasey signed with the San Francisco 49ers, where he made the transition from
linebacker to
fullback. He spent the 2006 season on the practice squad. Keasey entered the 2007 season as a member of the 49ers practice squad, and was signed to the active roster on September 21, 2007; taking the roster spot of injured linebacker
Manny Lawson. Keasey was cut and then resigned several times, ultimately appearing in 13 games. Keasey entered the
2008 NFL season as a challenger for the starting fullback position with the 49ers. On August 30, 2008, Keasey was named starting fullback over veteran
Moran Norris, who was subsequently released. After starting the first 7 games of the 2008 season, Keasey was placed on
injured reserve in week 8 with a torn
biceps tendon. He was replaced in the 49ers starting lineup by all purpose back
Michael Robinson. Keasey broke his
forearm in the first preseason game against the
Denver Broncos on August 14, 2009. He was expected to miss eight weeks with the injury. On August 19, 2009, Keasey was released by the San Francisco 49ers with an injury settlement to make room for more roster depth on the training camp squad.

New Orleans Saints on February 23, 2010. He was released during final roster cuts on September 4, 2010. ==References==
