Eric Reid reports only mild free-agent interest; says he won't kneel in 2018 | The Sacramento Bee

Free-agent safety Eric Reid on Thursday said his agent has been in contact with "a couple" of NFL teams but that there are no deals imminent and no visits planned as the second week of NFL free agency draws to a close.

Reid spoke to reporters after watching his younger brother, Stanford safety Justin Reid, work out in front of NFL evaluators, including 49ers general manager John Lynch, at the school's pro day.

League observers are keeping a close eye on Eric Reid's foray into free agency. The market for safety has lagged behind other positions such as cornerback and wide receiver.
