Spoilers auto-deploy when reversers are deployed, even if not armed.
Pulling reverse only moves the speed brake into the armed position, the spoilers still need to have the A/C on ground & thrust levers near idle, a bounce will cause the speed brake lever to move towards down again, however it's usually totally out of sync with the A/C by that point.
