The KC safety and occasional fill-in kicker thinks there's a unique opportunity for him with the kickoff changes.
. The goal of these new rules is to reintroduce the kickoff as an exciting part of the game, as it was for most of football history, while still maintaining modern safety standards.
Kansas City Chefs safety and occasional fill-in kicker Justin Reid has a particularly unique and fascinating view of how these rules will change the game. Appearing on the"We might've added some time to my career," Reid said. "We might have extended my career a couple years. The earning window is huge with this. When I'm done being the starting guy on safety, I can turn into that rotational third safety and also be a kickoff specialist, you know.
Reid already knows how to do both, which is probably why his mind wandered in this direction. He filled in for Harrison Butker due to injury at points in 2022 and 2023. Reid made a few extra points but kickoffs were a trickier proposition because, being a safety, he was not as capable of booming kicks out of the end zone."The whole dynamic of hang time has completely flipped," the safety said.
