Mike Reid aims to make Saints roster in training camp

With 42 days until the New Orleans Saints' season opener against the Detroit Lions, newly signed cornerback Mike Reid is working to secure a spot on the team's roster. Reid, who previously played for the South Dakota Coyotes, joined the Saints shortly after being released by the Carolina Panthers. Competing among a deep pool of defensive backs, including Kool-Aid McKinstry and Quincy Riley, Reid's path to making the team hinges on notable performances in training camp and preseason games. Currently, he is wearing No. 42 as he attempts to prove himself within a crowded defensive backfield.
