During warmups before the Houston Texans faced the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, defensive back Justin Reid had some fun and was filmed kicking a field goal or extra point at NRG Stadium. Then Reid led the special teams by with the kickoff to start the preseason finale.
Though it seems the Houston Texans kicker wasn’t available, at least it is fun to see a player with the talents of Reid showcase other football skills he has, including skills as a kickoff specialist.
Reid has quickly become one of the best defensive players on the Houston Texans as he enters his fourth season in the NFL since being drafted in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft, but is being a kicker a one-time deal since it is a preseason game, or could it be a spot on the depth chart if he’d ever need to be called upon for that job?
