Crossword Genius

Reportedly draw a digit (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toe

'a digit' is the definition.
(digit on a foot)

'reportedly draw' is the wordplay.
'reportedly' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'draw' becomes 'tow' (both can mean to pull along).
'tow' sounds like 'TOE'.

(Other definitions for toe that I've seen before include "One's nailed" , "Digit; kick" , "Foot extremity." , "Pedal extremity" , "Part of foot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
