The 6-foot-3-inch, 254-pound outside linebacker reunites with Titans head coach Mike Vrabel, who was the Texans' linebackers coach during Reed's last season in Houston in 2014.ย
Reed's new stint marks his 10th season in the NFL since being drafted by the Texans in 2011. After the 2014 season, Reed played four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons including Super Bowl, when the Falcons lost to the Patriots 34-28 in overtime.ย
In 2019, Reed signed a one-year, $1.6 million deal with the Arizona Cardinals, but was placed on the injured reserve list for a hamstring injury halfway through the season.ย
In 129 games in the NFL, including 86 starts, Reed has 284 tackles and 22.5 sacks.ย
