Summary
Desmond Reid is an electric, undersized playmaker who consistently defies his stature with balance and short-area quickness. A former All-American, he is a threat in both the run and pass game, capable of turning short gains into explosive plays. Despite recurring injury concerns, his toughness and ability to win in space as a runner and returner make him one of the more dynamic athletes in the class.

Bills' Desmond Reid: Joining Buffalo
The Bills signed Reid as an undrafted free agent Friday, Alec White and Maddy Glab of the team's official site report.
Reid played his first two collegiate seasons at Western Carolina before ending his career with two seasons at the University of Pittsburgh. The running back carried the ball 60 times for 278 yards and two touchdowns, adding 23 catches for 317 yards and two more scores over seven games in 2025. Reid's smaller frame makes him more injury-prone, but he is an explosive athlete who can line up anywhere and make plays in space. If the Bills are looking for someone to take over for Khalil Shakir at punt returner, Reid may have a path to a regular-season roster spot.
