Reddick went to Haddon Heights High School in Haddon Heights, New Jersey. He was a safety and running back for the Garnets high school football team. Due to a fractured femur, he only appeared in four games during his senior year. In 2012, Reddick was a walk-on for the Temple University football team. In his freshman year, he played running back and safety. He redshirted the 2012 season before making his debut in 2013. He was named First-Team All-AAC as a senior in 2016 after recording 65 tackles and 10.5 sacks as a defensive end.
Reddick accepted his invitation to participate in the 2017 Senior Bowl on November 14, 2016. During the Senior Bowl, he was moved to inside linebacker and impressed team representatives and scouts after excelling in practice. On January 28, 2017, Reddick tied Michigan’s Ben Gedeon for the game-high nine combined tackles while playing for Chicago Bears head coach John Fox’s North team, which lost 16-15 to the South. His Senior Bowl performance boosted his draft stock significantly, propelling him from an obscure potential top 100 prospect to a top 20 prospect in record time.
