And he is now admitting as much:

I chuckle at the Texans fans that billed Reed as a "great mentor" to the younger players in OTA and camp. Then it was "as long as he was ready for the regular season". Now? "As long as he makes a couple of big plays late in the season and in the playoffs".Quote:
Reed's injury hoodwinks keep getting worse for the Texans. "I plan on being back for Week 1," Reed said Wednesday. "But as you’ve known me for the longest time, I’m going to be smart about my injuries and make sure I’m there for the later part of the season when the team really needs me." Reed has gone from being ready for the start of camp, to potentially returning "midway through it" to not a guarantee for Week 1.
I am not really criticizing the Texans for signing Reed. It is now-or-never for that regime, and the more championship-experienced players, the better (generally speaking). However, I think their biggest hurdle to getting over the championship-hump lies at the player behind the center and the man wearing the headphones.
Who knows? Reed may regain his health and have pro-bowl season. I just don't want him to end up like Willie Mays on the '73 Mets.
I am thankful (extremely thankful) to have seen him play so many great years on the Ravens. Kinda wish he would have retired like Ray, but he got his paycheck, I can understand that, too. I wish him the best...
Let's call it the way it went down: Reed suckered the Texans.
Image that, Reed saying things that are making Texan fans unhappy. Seems to me, reed did this when he was with the Ravens. Glad the Texan now have to deal with the reed drama.Seems awful quiet on the Ravens team, even Suggs was low key in that interview the other day.
But there is another thing...if Reed gets on the field and makes plays for them that end up winning some games...they will suddenly forget about the drama. But if the Texans faulter and he is either on the sidelines hurt or blowing plays...they will be screaming to get rid of him in a hurry. It will be a love and hate thing.
Reed picked the Texans...............................pockets.
Ed Reed flat out intercepted the Texans and took it to the house.
Houston paid Ed for Two Tickets to Paradise
Ed thought he was just paying him to SING Two Tickets to Paradise
Well, Ed Reed was always a man of mystery. Houston will be gearing up for their annual take down of the Bengals in the wild card round of the playoffs and they'll still be looking for Reed.
