Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Reggie is a large dog and likely will be fine. Cooked chicken bones usually do not cause a problem and the stomach acids tend to break the bones down. You can bulk up his diet with bread/fiber to help them pass, but that is likely unnecessary. Sometimes it isn't the bones that cause a problem but the sauce or seasoning that does-upset stomach and/or pancreatitis. It might not be wrong to feed a bland diet for a few days. I hope this helps and I wish Reggie the best!
