is a talented LB/ATH for Carver who’s been really productive this season.
“Reynolds is a dominant defender who has lined up and made huge plays at LB, nickel, and deep downfield as a safety. No matter where he lines up, you can count on Reynolds to provide terrific coverage- he’s quick on his feet, can cover tons of ground, and can get his hands on the ball to frequently come away with PBUs and INTs.
Reynolds is just as good at defending the run. He quickly flies downhill to the line of scrimmage, fills in rushing lanes, and is a talented tackler who gets low and wraps up the ballcarrier for little to no gain.“
We’ll have to watch Reynolds this week. He’s a physical force every snap that offenses have to account for. Opelika’s run game could run into some obstacles this week.

Reynolds is a physical and instinctive linebacker who thrives in stopping the run. His ability to take on and shed blockers allows him to control the middle of the field effectively. He plays with a high level of intensity, delivering crushing hits while maintaining discipline in his assignments. His natural leadership qualities make him the heart of his defense, ensuring his teammates are always in the right position. With continued development in his pass coverage skills, Reynolds has the potential to be a complete three-down linebacker.

Kendariys Reynolds holds a few D1 offers, but he is still a sleeper on the national level and could generate some P4 buzz before his junior season concludes. He is a bit of a tweener, coming in at 6’3 190 and playing at the LB spot. He has the speed and athleticism to play DB, but it’s more likely that he fills out and sticks at LB. Reynolds plays with just 1 speed, fast. From the snap, he dissects plays well and fires like a missile from his stance into the backfield. He arrives with force at the ball carrier and uses his length to wrap tackle. In coverage, he is fast and long, which allows him to cloud passing lanes over the middle of the field. Athletically, Reynolds lands a P4 grade. Now, he just has to add more play strength and mature physically.
*Reynolds now plays at Carver Montgomery*

As I noted, Reynolds is no stranger to taking down the ball carrier. He seems to be part of every tackle when watching film. He is a sound tackler and engages the ball carrier with aggression and strength. Reynolds wraps up and doesn’t rely on his force to bring the ball carrier down. College coaches will not have to coach him up here at all.

Quick first step downhill in the run but is often incorrect in his run fit. Will also delay engagement with opposing linemen when the alley is vacant. Play strength lacks when asked to engage/disengage in one-on-one opportunities. In space, Kendarius is active and consistently around the football.
