Reiter was clearly signed as a backup – then waived before voluntary camp even starts? He must have a medical/physical issue…
Tyrone Wheatley Jr? Man I’m getting old when the players I watched as a kid are sending their kids to the NFL.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing but his dad’s not that much older than me…
I gotta give Isaiah Williams credit. He’s been bouncing on and off practice squads for six years. He finally saw regular season action for the Jets last year. Many would have given up by this point. He probably should go to a Spring league or try to make a CFL team.
If he doesn’t catch on with another team following his release by the Chiefs, Austin can always resume his literary career as a REITER !!
Reiter’s page is pro-football-reference.com shows transactions in 2015 and 2016 with the Washington Commanders. I didn’t realize that team name changes were retroactive BUT it still shows he was drafted by the Redskins. He has had a colorful run : Redskins, Browns, Chiefs. He should now try to hook up with either the Atlanta Braves or the Chicago Blackhawks.
