Mayo beat Kerry in the 2026 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final at Croke Park, with O'Shea named among the substitutes. The win ended a long wait for the county's All-Ireland title, and O'Shea later said it was a deeply meaningful moment for the Breaffy clubman.

O'Shea came on as a second-half substitute in Mayo's 1–24 to 2–20 Round 1 All-Ireland SFC win over Monaghan at Clones. The appearance was his 100th senior championship game, making him the first outfield player to reach that mark and only the second player overall after Dublin goalkeeper Stephen Cluxton.
