Former Welsh rugby star Louis Rees-Zammit is poised to sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars' practice squad after being waived by the Kansas City Chiefs. The 22-year-old, who pursued a career in the NFL through the International Player Pathway program, was unable to secure a spot on the Chiefs' 53-man roster despite participating in all three pre-season games. During his time with the Chiefs, he played various roles including running back and wide receiver, accumulating six carries for 22 yards and one reception. The Jaguars expressed interest in Rees-Zammit earlier this year and he could potentially play in London during their back-to-back games in October. Each NFL team can have one international player on the practice squad, and the Jaguars currently have available spots after a recent injury to one of their players. Rees-Zammit's journey reflects his commitment to transitioning from rugby to American football.
