Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

The Titans secured solid value by locking up Jerrick Reed II at just $1.1M for one year, earning a B CVI in what amounts to a low-risk depth addition. Reed operates as a reliable depth piece at safety, and at this minimal salary, Tennessee is essentially getting proven NFL experience for backup money — a shrewd move in today's inflated market where even journeyman safeties can command $3-4M annually. The short-term structure gives both sides flexibility, allowing Reed to prove he deserves a bigger payday while protecting the Titans from long-term commitment to a rotational player. At 27, Reed isn't a long-term building block, but he's in his prime years and brings the kind of veteran presence that can stabilize a secondary when injuries inevitably hit. This deal reflects smart roster management — Tennessee gets a competent safety who won't break the bank while maintaining cap flexibility for bigger moves elsewhere.

Performance Analysis

Jerrick Reed II receives an F grade as a Seahawks safety who has been unable to establish a consistent role over three seasons. His 24 tackles across 23 games with Seattle is limited production that tells you he has been a fringe contributor rather than a defensive regular. The decline from 10 games in 2023 to five in 2024 to eight in 2025 suggests he has been losing ground on the depth chart. Now with the Titans, Reed gets a change of scenery, but the F grade and limited production mean he will need to earn every opportunity from scratch. Reed is the kind of young defensive back who needs a breakout preseason to jumpstart a career that has stalled.

Fan Sentiment

A low-risk depth retention that keeps roster continuity without addressing a bigger need. Multiple outlets labeled Reed a 'depth safety,' signaling minimal expectations from beat reporters. The key signal: Tennessee originally claimed him off Seattle's waiver wire, indicating modest league-wide demand. Fans see this as uninspiring roster filler rather than a meaningful upgrade at the safety position. Reed projects as a special teams contributor and emergency backup with little path to a starting role.
