is an explosive young playmaker who brings quickness and versatility to the field for Imhotep Institute Charter. At 5’8″, 150 pounds, Reid relies on his speed and agility to create separation and make plays in space. As a receiver, he shows the ability to accelerate quickly off the line and become a dangerous target in short and intermediate routes. Reid’s shiftiness allows him to make defenders miss once the ball is in his hands, turning routine catches into bigger gains. On the defensive side, his quick feet and reaction skills translate well to the secondary where he can stay attached to receivers in coverage. Reid also flashes the ability to close quickly on the ball and compete at the catch point. His energy and playmaking mindset allow him to impact the game on both sides of the ball. With continued development and added strength, Reid has the athletic tools to develop into a dynamic two-way contributor as his career progresses.

is a talented defensive back in the 2029 class. His ability to play as a nickel safety is impressive, as he is good at playing in space. In his film, you see someone who is a good athlete who also understands how to play the position. He does a nice job of reading the play and coming upfield and making the tackle in the open field. He is also good at dropping in coverage and making plays as a pass defender. Reid has the skills to continue to improve and play even better going forward.
