He brings it every game. Ask Gronk about that. He makes plays, Most importantly, he doesn't get hurt. Has he missed any games the last few years? I can't remember any.

Sure he has shortcomings but I wouldn't be so quick to kick him the curb in 2022. Howard and Jones are both much more athletic, but Howard's rookie year was spent on IR and Jones couldn't make it through the regular season. Reeded is about as reliable a backup or situational player as you can find, for the money.
