NFL Network is reporting that free agent safety Ed Reed has left the Houston Texans' building without a deal. Nothing expected today. One source predicted that Ed Reed would shop the deal around, but that he will eventually get something done with Houston.
CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora said this on Twitter:
The San Francisco 49ers have been linked to Ed Reed's name during free agency. Although, it is unknown how much interest the team has in Reed. Earlier this week, La Canfora said that should Reed not sign with the Texans, a visit to the 49ers may follow.
The 34 year old Reed was drafted in the first round of the 2002 NFL Draft. He has been selected to nine Pro Bowls, was the 2004 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award winner, and holds the all-time NFL record for interception return yards, currently at 1,506.
Listed at 5-11 and 205 lbs, Reed had 58 tackles, 4 interceptions and a touchdown last season.

It's time for the next chapter in the rivalry between the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams, which has produced more than its share of memorable moments in recent years.
Most of those moments have belonged to the 49ers, who have won eight regular season games in a row over the Rams. The most recent chapter in the rivalry was particularly memorable for Christian McCaffrey, who ran for a touchdown, caught a touchdown and threw a touchdown in a 31-14 win at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on October 30, 2022 -- just ten days after he was traded to the 49ers from the Carolina Panthers.
With the 49ers returning to SoFi Stadium this weekend, McCaffrey spoke a bit on Friday about what made that game special. We'll get into that in this version of 49ers Notebook, along
