"Delaware Dan" Reeder attended the University of Delaware and was drafted in the fifth round of the 1985 NFL Draft by the Los Angeles Raiders. He was cut by the Raiders and signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He played parts of the 1986 and 1987 seasons with Pittsburgh, appearing in 13 games. He carried the ball eight times for 28 yards and caught two passes for four yards. He also returned four kickoffs for 52 yards.
