Triple M's Hot Breakfast chief footy reporter Tom Browne has reported Ben Reid has suffered another injury setback - and it's not his calf.

Reid was on the comeback trail from a calf strain, but Browne posted some mail from the Pies that he'd had a new and different setback.

"That's the mail I get from people down at Collingwood," he said.

Darce said it'd be tough news for Reid as he aims to play again this season.

"That's bad news for Ben Reid," he said.

"Obviously with the soft tissue history that he's had, and as you get closer to finals it gets harder and harder."
