I can find nothing in the rules (and I've looked) that defines a runner's position on the basepaths by the position of his
feet.
Meanwhile, Reyes' only body part touching the ground is clearly behind third base here. Yes, his butt is only slightly behind third base, but if he had rolled 10 feet past third, would you still consider him between third base and home?
