Kubiak raves about rookie rush linebacker Brooks Reed

Brooks Reed - LB - Texans

Coach Gary Kubiak praised rookie OLB Brooks Reed as the one player showing the "most vast improvement from day-to-day, practice-to-practice and game-to-game."

Reed is still transitioning from defensive end to edge rusher, but the early returns are impressive. The second-rounder recorded two sacks, two hurries, and two forced fumbles against the Saints Saturday night. Expected to back up Connor Barwin, Reed's biggest rookie-year impact will come on special teams.

This comes as no surprise, Brooks Reed was touted as a poor man's Clay Matthews, haircut included.  Reed is going to be a great compliment opposite Super Mario.  Especially when he lines up next to rookie stud J.J. Wyatt who has been nearly unblockable this preseason.
