Desmond Reid

What the tape shows

He has been highly productive, totaling more than 1,200 rushing yards and 800 receiving yards over the past two seasons despite missing time with injury. His body control and short-area explosiveness are outstanding, leading to high missed-tackles-forced numbers, particularly as a receiver when he creates space with elite separation ability. He also brings extensive receiving experience and value as a punt returner. His most sustainable NFL path is as a creative passing-game weapon and primary punt returner. There is a Dexter McCluster-type contributor here if a team protects him from early-down punishment.
