Chiefs S Justin Reid kicks PAT in preseason game

Posted on | by Field Level Media

Kansas City Chiefs safety Justin Reid successfully kicked an extra point during Saturday’s preseason opener against the host Chicago Bears.

His PAT with 20 seconds remaining in the first half gave the Chiefs a 14-0 lead at intermission. Kicker Harrison Butker converted the PAT after Kansas City’s first touchdown of the game.

Reid’s kicking skills went viral earlier this week with a video of him nailing a 65-yard field goal off a tee during a training camp practice.

Reid, 25, also handled the kickoff duties for the Houston Texans in last season’s final preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

A third-round pick by Texans in 2018, Reid has recorded 315 tackles, seven interceptions and two sacks in 57 games (53 starts) in four seasons with the Texans. He signed a free-agent deal with the Chiefs on March 18.

The Houston Texans activated running back David Johnson from the reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday.

He landed on the list last Friday and missed Sunday’s 36-7 loss at Chicago.

Dunn, 28, contributed 26 tackles, three quarterback hits and one fumble recovery this season.
