Hi again Savanna! I don’t think this is L. reclusa, however I still don’t have a species ID for you. I can’t make out the eyes clearly to be sure. It does look very similar. Hopefully another user here will chime in.
Here is an interesting website that might offer more help.

Thanks. I actually used that site to form a similar opinion earlier. Was curious if others agreed. Thanks for the help.
Looks like this spider has a 2 on top 6 on bottom eye arrangement.
Yes, I concur. Maybe a Southern House spider or what-not. You’re also kinda out of (the usual) range on the coast for Fiddlebacks. We see lots of these in Oklahoma. I have submitted many photos here which you can see through my user profile: https://spiderid.com/pictures/?fwp_photographer=26917
Yea. Seeing them in coastal GA is the exception for sure. This room is adjacent to our porch which is full of brown and black widows. I hear recluses share similar habitats.
Hacklemesh??
