I don’t really remember much reggae being played except for maybe UB40 (they did covers of "Red Red Wine" and "I Can’t Help Falling In Love") and Inner Circle (they did the Cops theme song "Bad Boys," and "Girl I Want to Make You Sweat"). Oh yeah and there was Big Mountain’s cover of Peter Frampton’s "Baby I Love Your Way" from the Reality Bites soundtrack and Jimmy Cliff’s version of Johnny Nash’s "I Can See Clearly Now" for the Cool Runnings soundtrack.
Basically the only reggae on the radio in the U.S. in the early 90s were either cover songs or came from movies or TV.

I guess Maxi Priest was considered reggae, too.
