John McCain, who covered the NFL for the Houston Chronicle, thinks that Reed will be spending the night in Houston and that the two sides will reach an agreement on Friday.
It was reported that Reed may have next visited with the San Francisco 49ers, who were rumored to be very interested in him.
ESPN's Adam Schefter had the following to add on Twitter.
Ravens S Ed Reed spoke today like a man saying goodbye to Baltimore. Every sign now points to him getting done a deal in Houston on Friday.
