Louis Rees-Zammit, the former Welsh rugby star, is unlikely to make the Kansas City Chiefs' 53-man roster for the upcoming NFL season, with an announcement expected regarding his status. After being waived by the Chiefs, he remains unassigned but is anticipated to join the team's practice squad, allowing him to train and potentially play if needed due to injuries. In his final pre-season game against the Chicago Bears, Rees-Zammit showcased his skills with four carries for 21 yards and a kickoff return for 36 yards, although he also faced some challenges. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid praised his athleticism, indicating that Rees-Zammit needs more familiarity with the game. Despite initial hopes for a main roster spot, his path in the NFL appears to be focused on development within the practice squad, following his transition from rugby to American football earlier this year.
