Reid had alot of solid TEs in Philly, several years of 60+ catches and 700+ yards.
Here are his dudes...
Jed Weaver 1999
Chad Lewis 2000-2004
L.J. Smith 2005-2008
Brent Celek 2009-2012 (he was until 2015, Ertz came in 2016 but Reid was gone of course in 2013)
Anthony Fasano 2013
Travis Kelce 2014-Present
None were the true #1 focal point like Kelce became here.
Meanwhile at RB here were his dudes
Duce Staley 1999, 2001-2002
Darnell Autry 2000
Brian Westbrook 2003-2009
LeSean McCoy - 2010-2012 (he went on to play until 2014 for PHI)
Jamaal Charles - 2013-2014
Charcandrick West - 2015
Spencer Ware - 2016
Kareem Hunt - 2017-2018
LeSean McCoy - 2019
Clyde Edwards-Helaire - 2020-2021
Isiah Pacheco - 2022-Present
Most of his backs were high-volume receiving backs. Westbrook, McCoy, Charles, Ware, and Hunt all got a lot of touches in the passing game to the tune of 500-700 yards.
I feel like he used the RB a lot more in the passing game before Kelce became the Kelce we have now. He also had a lot smaller, faster, quicker backs than of late.
It sure does stand to reason that getting back to a RB like TreVeyon Henderson as we move out of the Kelce years would take Reid more back to his roots.
As for a TE, I really do prefer Taylor to Arroyo. To each their own though, I feel like both are 2nd round TEs.
