Reed started all 13 games for the Hilltoppers, completing 353 passes for 4,249 yards and 36 touchdowns. Western Kentucky went 8-5 this season.
The 22-year-old Reed finished second in the nation in passing yards, behind only Washington's Michael Penix Jr.

He is expected to land with a Power 5 school, according to Staples.
