The Texans placed Reed (forearm) on injured reserve Saturday.
Reed will be forced to miss at least four games after breaking a metal plate in his forearm during the team's Week 13 win over the Colts. With the 22-year-old sidelined, Jalen Pitre is expected to shift over to safety alongside Calen Bullock, while Myles Bryant should fill in as the starting slot cornerback.

Texans' Jaylen Reed: Breaks plate in forearm
Reed needs surgery after breaking a metal plate in his forearm during Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Reed had a metal plate in his forearm from his time at Penn State, and it was damaged while trying to bring down Jonathan Taylor in the Week 13 win. The rookie safety had just earned a starting spot after recording 12 total tackles and one fumble recovery in the Week 12 victory over the Bills. It's currently unclear how long Reed will be sidelined for, but it's unlikely that he's able to return for the Week 14 matchup against the Chiefs on Sunday.

Texans' Jaylen Reed: Exits with forearm injury
Reed (forearm) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts.
Reed left in the second quarter after sustaining a forearm injury attempting to stop a third-down run by Jonathan Taylor. The safety managed to log two total tackles before his untimely exit. The Texans are thin at safety, so other defensive backs like Tremon Smith and Myles Bryant will likely have to fill in if Reed is unable to return.

Texans' Jaylen Reed: Game-high 12 stops in TNF win
Reed posted 12 tackles (nine solo) and a fumble recovery during the Texans' 23-19 win over the Bills on Thursday.
Reed mostly served on special teams over his five games prior to Week 12, but he was thrust into a starting position at safety after practice squad member Jalen Mills started against the Titans in Week 11. Reed took advantage of the opportunity, leading both teams with 12 tackles while recovering a Khalil Shakir fumble late in the third quarter that led to a 26-yard field goal by Ka'imi Fairbairn seven plays later. With Jimmie Ward (foot) still on the PUP list and M.J. Stewart (quadriceps) out for the rest of the season, Reed could be the Texans' second starting safety alongside Calen Bullock over the coming weeks.
