Out 3-4 weeks

Hamstring
August 18, 2020
Reid will be sidelined 3-to-4 weeks after suffering a hamstring in Saturday's contest versus Melbourne.
ANALYSIS
Reid's hamstring injury isn't considered overly serious, but it will cost him at least a few weeks as he continues on the recovery path. He had recently returned from a calf issue that sidelined him for an extended period of time, suiting up for just the last two game and is now headed for some more time on the sidelines.
Boots two majors in quiet performance
DCollingwood Magpies
August 15, 2020
Reid amassed two disposals, two goals, one tackle and one mark in Saturday's 100-44 loss to the Demons.
ANALYSIS
Playing in only his second game of the season, Reid ended the match as the only multiple goal scorer for the Magpies. It was a game to forget for the Magpies who were soundly beaten at both ends of the park. Reid should continue to get better as he works his way back from a calf injury, however, he is far from a must-roster fantasy option.
Listed as emergency

Calf
July 24, 2020
Reid (calf) is labeled an emergency for Saturday's match versus the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Given that Reid has yet to play in a contest this season, the selection committee seems to have elected to give him some run in a scratch match before returning to the AFL side. The fact that he's included as an emergency still leaves a glimmer of hope that he will join the action, though that would likely only come at the expense of an injury.
Could return in Round 8

Calf
July 21, 2020
Reid (calf) could return to game action in Round 8 versus West Coast, Riley Beveridge of the AFL's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Reid has yet to appear in a game for the Magpies this season but could be back on the AFL side in the coming weeks. Given the extent of his layoff, it would be surprising to see jump straight into senior play, but the Magpies are quite beat up at the moment.
Nearing return to action

July 14, 2020
Reid (calf) is expected to retake the field soon, Riley Beveridge of the AFL's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Reid has yet to make an appearance for the Pies this season while working his way back from a calf issue, but he could be in contention for selection again soon. Even when he's clear to play, there's a good chance Reid will begin in scratch matches before garnering consideration for the AFL side given his extended absence.
