KC Chiefs safety Justin Reid received honorable mention in ESPN's recent survey, with an opposing personnel staff member praising his overall profile.
' defense was one of the NFL's best last season, if not the premier unit in all of football. Steve Spagnuolo and Dave Merritt's secondary was a major reason why, with cornerbacks Trent McDuffie and L'Jarius Sneed leading the way.
Don't forget about safety Justin Reid, though. The 27-year-old was a great leader and on-field presence throughout the year, cementing himself as a good defensive piece. That may not have been quite enough for a top-10 ranking in the league, but it was very close.'s Jeremy Fowler chronicled the 10 best safeties in the NFL. Voting from all three aforementioned parties, as well as analysis from outlet analyst Matt Bowen, factored into the list.
In two years with the Chiefs, Reid has done nothing but play solid football and win Super Bowls. In 2022, he made 83 tackles and appeared in every game for the eventual champions while acclimating himself to Spagnuolo's defense. This past campaign, he set career-best marks in tackles , quarterback hits and sacks while playing the same leadership role.
Now in a contract year and right in his athletic prime, Reid has a massive opportunity to truly ascend to a new tier of safeties. If he can turn in a good 2024 campaign and lead the Chiefs to another championship, he'd be in rarefied air. Even without it, he's a formidable weapon for Spagnuolo and Co. With Bryan Cook back in the fold and Chamarri Conner being a versatile piece, this year's version of Reid could be the best.Jordan Foote is the deputy editor of Arrowhead Report on SI.
