Reid signed with Philadelphia after the 2023 NFL draft but was recently released along with Chim Okafora.

The 6-foot-5, 307-pound offensive tackle made 12 appearances with 11 starts in 2022, helping the Louisville Cardinals average 200.6 rushing yards per game for the 23rd-ranked rushing offense in the FBS.

Reid played 628 total snaps last season, almost exclusively at left tackle; he allowed only three sacks, two quarterback hits, and eight quarterback hurries in 314 pass block snaps and posted a Pro Football Focus grade of 60.9.

Patriots had two former undrafted Eagles in for a workout

The New England Patriots hosted former #Eagles undrafted free agents Chim Okorafor and Trevor Reid for workouts

The Patriots always look for offensive line depth and recently hosted two former Eagles for a free-agent tryout.

After being cut last weekend, Chim Okorafor and Trevor Reid worked out for Bill Belichick in New England.

The Patriots offensive line struggled in Thursday night’s 20-9 loss to the Texans and the organization wasted no time bringing in outside prospects to try out at the position.

Okorafor played two basketball seasons at Cal Poly Pomona, then transferred to Riverside City Community College in 2019, Missouri Southern in 2020, and Pitt State after that. He landed in Kansas at Benedictine for the 2022 season, playing three games.

A raw but talented athlete, the 6-foot-6, the 320-pound offensive line offers intriguing size as a developmental prospect.

The 6-foot-5, 307-pound Reid made 12 appearances with 11 starts in 2022, helping the Louisville Cardinals average 200.6 rushing yards per game for the 23rd-ranked rushing offense in the FBS.

Reid played 628 total snaps last season, almost exclusively at left tackle; he allowed only three sacks, two quarterback hits, and eight quarterback hurries in 314 pass block snaps and posted a Pro Football Focus grade of 60.9.

Patriots try out two offensive lineman after preseason struggles

After Thursday’s offensive line struggles, the Patriots reportedly had two offensive tackles in for a tryout on Friday.

The New England Patriots offensive line struggled on Thursday night, and the organization wasted no time bringing in outside prospects to try out at the position. On Friday, the team reportedly had offensive tackles Chim Okorafor and Trevor Reid in for tryouts, per ESPN’s Mike Reiss.

Okorafor measures in at 6-foot-6, 320 pounds. He signed with the Philadelphia Eagles in May, before he was ultimately let go from the team.

Reid also signed an undrafted free agent deal with the Eagles after serving as a key part of the Louisville line in his collegiate career. In his best year with the Cardinals in 2021, he allowed only three sacks, two quarterback hits, eight quarterback hurries and finished with a 77.4 overall Pro Football Focus grade.

At the very least, the Patriots are trying to address the offensive line issues they had in Thursday’s 20-9 loss to the Houston Texans.

The Patriots quarterbacks were constantly hurried on a night when the Texans’ defensive line was able to get to them with relative ease. Exploring depth at the tackle position at this point isn’t a bad thing.
