Louis Rees-Zammit has been making waves in the NFL world as reports confirm that he has met with two teams recently in hopes of securing a contract. The former Wales and Gloucester player visited the New York Jets and the Cleveland Browns, impressing scouts during the NFL's International Player Pathway (IPP) Pro Day trials. Although there was some disappointment with his 40-yard dash time, Rees-Zammit's speed and footwork caught the attention of scouts from 31 of the 32 NFL teams. Offers have been extended to him, but no official announcement has been made yet.
Rees-Zammit is expected to continue visiting NFL teams throughout the month before heading back to the UK. With interest growing in his potential, it looks like he is on the path to join an NFL practice squad. Sports marketing expert Neil Hopkins believes that Rees-Zammit has the qualities to succeed in the NFL, with his impressive performances on the pitch catching the eye of sponsors and potential teams.
