He can spin the ball — and a ballad when need be.
St. Augustine High School alum Austin Reed brought his Chicago Bears teammates to their feet with a rousing rendition of Keyshia Cole’s “Love” on HBO’s “Hard Knocks.”
Wearing crocs and ankle socks, the undrafted free agent quarterback out of Western Kentucky warmed up the room with some sultry moves as his fellow gridders leaned in to listen.
With the crowd soon singing along, Reed fearlessly hit a high note — and brought the house down.
Winding down with a slightly off key but courageous flourish, Reed dropped the mic as the room erupted in applause.
“That’s how you do it!” someone shouted.
Caleb Williams, this year’s #1 draft pick, was the first to jump out of his seat and exchange a hard dap with the former Yellowjacket as the clip quickly went viral online.
Reed is battling for a roster spot this year, and has become a fan favorite on the HBO reality series.
The charismatic QB’s name began to circulate online last week when he confessed his dedication to the “Love Island” reality show.
The gunslinger threw for 3,324 yards for the Hilltoppers last year, along with 31 touchdown passes and 11 picks.
