Louis Rees-Zammit to sign with Jaguars’ practice squad

Louis Rees-Zammit didn’t make the Chiefs’ roster, but it isn’t the end of the road for the former rugby star.

Rees-Zammit is signing with the Jaguars’ practice squad, Tom Hamilton of ESPN reports.

Rees-Zammit, 22, starred in rugby union, playing for Wales and touring with the British & Irish Lions. He arrived in the NFL through the International Pathway Program (IPP), signing a three-year deal with the Chiefs this offseason.

The Jaguars showed interest in Rees-Zammit after the IPP Pro Day in March.

He appeared in all three preseason games with the Chiefs, playing running back, receiver and on special teams as a returner and kickoff specialist. Rees-Zammit had six carries for 22 yards and one reception for 3 yards.
