Matt Reynolds
Kansas City Chiefs | Offensive Tackle
Years at BYU: 2008-2011
After the 2010 season, Reynolds was considered a can’t-miss NFL prospect. Apparently one year changed his fortunes as Reynolds who stayed for his Senior year at BYU, went undrafted in the 2012 NFL Draft.
Reynolds initially signed with the Carolina Panthers but was then cut during Training Camp. Reynolds landed in Philadelphia with his brother and finished the 2012 season as part of the practice squad.
After Andy Reid was fired, Reynolds was cut by the Eagles and is now with Andy Reid again on the Kansas City Chiefs.
Heading into 2013, the Chiefs looked to have a talented starting Offensive Line in place. Reynolds isn’t currently on KC’s two or three-deep depth chart at this time. I would expect another practice squad season for the former Cougar.
2013 Outlook: Practice squad
