Early years

Reynolds attended and played wide receiver and safety for John Jay High School in San Antonio, where in his senior season he had a total of 44 catches for 667 yards and 48 tackles with 3 interceptions.[2] Reynolds finished his high school career with a total of 102 receptions for 1859 yards on 22 touchdowns. Out of high school Reynolds was rated as three-star recruit by 247Sports.com and Rivals.com.[2][3] He gained interest from a few NCAA Division I program, including Oregon State. Reynolds made a campus visit to Oregon State, but a few weeks later the Beavers informed Reynolds that all the wide receiver roster spots for the team's recruiting class were filled. Reynolds then signed with Tyler Junior College.[4]
College career
Tyler Junior College
As a freshman at Tyler Junior College in 2013, Reynolds accumulated a total of 782 yards on 44 catches and was named to the second team all conference.[5] After his better than average freshman season he managed to pick up a couple offers as he was ranked a three-star junior college recruit by Rivals.com.[3] Most notable offers were from his now school Texas A&M Aggies football and Oregon Ducks football. Other schools did offer him after his freshman season as well as Boise State University and Texas Christian University. Reynolds then signed and chose to play college football for Texas A&M University.[6]
Texas A&M
In his first season Texas A&M, in 2014, Reynolds caught 52 passes for 842 yards and 13 touchdowns. The 13 touchdowns set a Texas A&M Aggies season school record, breaking the mark of 12 previously held by Pro Bowler Mike Evans and Jeff Fuller.[6][7] As a junior in 2015, Reynolds totals 51 catches for 907 yards and 5 touchdowns.[8] In the last game of his junior year, against the Louisville Cardinals on December 30, 2015 in the 2015 Music City Bowl, Reynolds recorded career highs in receptions (11) and receiving yards (177).[9]
Going into his senior season Reynolds had the choice of entering the National Football League Draft or staying for his final year with Texas A&M. In October 2015, the National Football League (NFL) ranked Reynolds as the sixth-best prospect in college football.[10] Reynolds chose to stay at Texas A&M. He finished his college career with A&M with receiving touchdowns (6) and receiving yards (586).[11] Reynolds studied recreation, park, and tourism science at Texas A&M.[12]
