Intends to sign with Chicago
Reed is slated to sign with the Bears as an undrafted free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Reed (6-foot-2, 220 pounds) had a borderline late-round/UDFA draft grade by most analysts, but the sixth-year senior out of Western Kentucky ultimately didn't have his name called Saturday afternoon and will head to Chicago, where he'll slide in on the depth chart behind No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams, Tyson Bagent and Brett Rypien. Reed completed 63.2 percent of his college throws for 8,086 yards, 71 touchdowns and 22 interceptions.

Similar prospect to Bagent
Reed is the top rookie undrafted free agent to watch for the Bears and could push fellow former undrafted free agent Tyson Bagent for the backup spot, according to Nick Baumgardner and Scott Dotcherman of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Reed racked up over 15,000 yards and 149 touchdowns between his time at Southern Illinois, West Florida and Western Kentucky. He has a similar prospect profile to Bagent, who not only landed a roster spot with the Bears in 2023 but started four games, winning two. Bagent has an NFL track record and incumbency advantage, but Reed could push him for the backup spot behind 2024 first overall pick Caleb Williams.
