Trigger warning: those who don't want to read about Stanford Men who are helping other Pac-12 teams grasp for glory rather than being one of the best players on Stanford's roster don't need to keep reading.
Gabe Reid missed Utah's first game while nursing an injury, eased back in with significant but not major snaps in the second game, and then had an expanded role on Saturday. Despite easing back in, he already has 1.5 tackles for loss. Among 477 edge defenders nationally with 40+ snaps, Reid has the #20 PFF grade (second in the Pac-12). Stanford's edge defender ranks: DiCosmo is #270, Herron is #291, and Bailey is #425.
