He played a key role in the Riders capturing their first Grey Cup, rushing for 133 yards including a 31-year TD that effectively sealed the outcome as Saskatchewan defeated the Ottawa Rough Riders 29-14 on Nov 26, 1966, in Vancouver.
Reed, who surpassed 1000 rushing yards 11 times in his CFL career, was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame and Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame in 1979 and the Riders’ Plaza of Honour in 1987.
