A header (110) for an agricultural vehicle (100) including a frame (112), a reel (116) rotatably mounted to the frame (112), and a reel drive assembly (200, 400) operably connected to the reel (116). The reel drive assembly (200, 400) rotates the reel (116) in a first drive configuration and a second drive configuration. The reel drive assembly (200, 400) includes a first drive (202, 402) operably connected to the reel (116), and a second drive (204, 404) selectively connected to the reel (116) such that the second drive (204, 404) is disconnected from the reel (116) in the first drive configuration and the second drive (204, 404) is operably connected to the reel (116) in parallel with the first drive (202, 402) in the second drive configuration.
