During last week’s media look at the Kansas City Chiefs’ organized team activities (OTAs), a major resulting storyline was which players were being used for the league’s new kickoff rule.

Chiefs assistant head coach and special teams coordinator Dave Toub spoke on the advantages of using starting safety Justin Reid to kickoff, noting the likely increase of kickers being required to make tackles with the new formation.

Reid addressed the possibility for himself following Friday’s media look at practice.

The elder statesman of Kansas City’s secondary did not realize it was a question whether or not he would find a role in this year’s kicking game.
