Louis Rees-Zammit Faces Steep Learning Curve in NFL Transition

The former rugby star is working tirelessly to master the Kansas City Chiefs' playbook and secure a spot on the roster.

Rees-Zammit is adapting to the NFL's complex playbook, a significant shift from rugby's simpler set pieces.
His preparation includes long hours of study to catch up with teammates who have played football since childhood.
The Chiefs see potential in Rees-Zammit's speed and versatility, particularly in special teams and kickoff returns.
Adjusting to American football's physical demands, including wearing pads, is another challenge for the Welsh athlete.
