The Texans placed veteran safety Justin Reid on the reserve-COVID-19 list, raising the likelihood that Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers was his final game for the AFC South franchise. A former third-round draft pick from Stanford, Reid is in the final year of his contract and not expected to return as a free agent. Reid has two interceptions and one forced fumble in 11 games this season.
Reid is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in 2022 after his four-year, $4.063 million rookie contract expires. Reid is being paid a $2.433 million base salary this year.
The younger brother of former Pro Bowl safety Eric Reid, Reid has seven career interceptions. Meanwhile, the Texans placed safeties Jonathan Owens (dislocated wrist) and Grayland Arnold (ankle) on injured reserve.
