Narrative:
At 120 kts first officer (first officer) said 'left reverser.' I did not feel any yaw and looked at engines. First officer said 'left reverser' again. I announced 'rejecting' and began procedure. Vr was 151 kts. Reject initiated at 130 kts. I felt it was safer to reject at that point even though there was no yaw then rotate with the possibility of the reverser opening as I lifted the nose. Rejected takeoff (rejected takeoff) engaged. I took over manually and exited at high speed and brought the plane to a stop. We asked for emergency equipment as our brake temperatures were rising. We ran the rejected takeoff checklist. We were towed to a gate after the brakes had cooled enough to be approached. No injuries reported among crew or passengers.
