The Houston Texans' defensive scheme in 2018 often featured multiple safety looks focusing on versatility and athleticism in the secondary.
Year 1 impact as a versatile defensive back capable of playing both safety spots, with the ceiling to become a Pro Bowl caliber safety.
A passive, single-high safety scheme that primarily asks safeties to play deep zone and limits their opportunities to play closer to the box.
Reid's athleticism and versatility make him a strong fit for a defense that values interchangeable parts in the secondary and disguising coverages.
Selected #68 overall in Round 3 of the 2018 NFL Draft by Houston Texans out of Stanford.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
