William Thomas Reynolds (1870 – after 1893) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Small Heath.[1]

Reynolds was born in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. He joined Small Heath in April 1893,[2] and made his debut in the Second Division on 14 October 1893 in a 4–3 home defeat to Liverpool. He was the player used most often at left back during the 1893–94 season, playing 13 games in all competitions,[3] but was released following Small Heath's promotion as he was not thought good enough to play at a higher level.[2]
