I love Coach Reid.
I’m not playing for anybody else but Big Red.
If he calls it quits this year, I’m out there with him, man.”

That’s been the battle of my career,” he said.

The optics of it look really bad, but nobody knows your and Big Red’s relationship.

After the game, Reid toldESPN, “He caught me when I wasn’t looking.
He didn’t know I was going to go that far.
He came over and gave me a hug and said, ‘Sorry about that.’
He just wants to be on the field, and he wants to play.
So there’s nobody I get better than I get him.
He’s a competitive kid, and he loves to play.
He makes me feel young, but my balance is terrible.”
So Big Red, sorry if I caught you with that cheap shot, baby."
