Reed kicked field goals of 41, 49, 41 and 43 yards for the Steelers (3-1).
His game-winner came after Brett Basnez hit Chris Hannon with a 29-yard scoring strike to tie the game with two minutes left for the Panthers (2-2).
Dennis Dixon then drove the Steelers down the field, setting up Reed's game-winning kick.
Pittsburgh starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was given the night off, with Byron Leftwich and Dixon sharing the duties.
Panthers quarterback Matt Moore was 15-of-27 for 164 yards before leaving the game with a leg injury.
