Lions quarterback Jared Goff chalked up Reynolds’ miscues as a "mistake" and propped him up as "an absolute stud" of a player.
Reynolds is a veteran wide receiver who has already played for three teams during his career. He started with the Los Angeles Rams before he split time with the Lions and Tennessee Titans in 2021.
Reynolds started to become more a part of the offense after the Lions picked him up off waivers. He played 14 games for Detroit in 2022 and managed to play each game in 2023.
