Absolutely. I watched some crap XFL games and it seemed to me the new kickoff rules de-emphasize blocking (and the NFL banned wedges anyway) but put more emphasis on the skill of the individual returner. This guy has the drag-strip speed so he could do real damage if he finds a gap.

Met Rees by chance twice now once I’m bmw garage and once at the airport a few weeks ago,had time for everyone . Class man and player. He is alot bigger in real life than he looks on TV also.

This dude should play in the NFL

Fair play, they are bangers..

Some people don't realise he is 6ft 3 which is the reason he doesn't look that fast but he is. His top speed recorded (according to data online) makes him one of the fastest in the world.

He’s a winger, meaning he plays closest to the sideline. In rugby, the hall usually starts close to the center and is passed outside, ending with the winger having to run the furthest. This makes LRZ a good look for kick returns, as he knows how to find the sideline and work behind blocks.

I like his abilities. Good pick up for Kansas City.

Ahhhhh KC Chief!!!!! ❤🎉

He's very good with his feet, as you can see. Can chase his own kicks and score. Very fast, and he can step tacklers pretty easily. His attacking is better than defence, but he won't need that in NFL. Remember that rugby games are less stop and start than NFL, so his stamina is great to play 40 minute half and still run like this!

NFL lifer in the US. Looks to me like he could make a roster as a kick returner right now, but he'll need to develop a position too if he wants his career to last more than a season or two and a handful of returns. At 6'3" 215 with breakaway speed he could play wideout or slot receiver. Hope we see him on Sundays in America. How cool would it be if he signed with a team with a London game.

@@TravelingwithValeman77 More than likely 7th rounder, or an undrafted free agent. Think about Jordan Mailata. He has freakish size, and speed for a giant and he was still drafted in the 7th round. LRZ's speed won't be anything these guys haven't seen before. It alone isn't enough to crack the League. He's gonna have to flash some skill, or some big time playmaking. There's plenty of fast, skilled players in the college ranks who never get a shot at the NFL. Teams do get an extra practice squad spot reserved for 1 international player, so if he wants to make it that's his best bet.

as a Chiefs fan, i can say after watching this 6 min highlight video that we're going to win everything. again!

Welcome to the Chiefs Kingdom, Rees Lightning!

Just such express type pace it’s insane

He reminds me of this annoying winger I had to play once. They'd just give him the ball and he'd run to the sideline and around everyone. I was exceptionally quick but he was exceptionally fast. That top end speed is tough to deal with when Rees-Zammit is given space. Anyway, after being embarrassed by this opposite winger twice, i did the only thing I could to stop him a third time....a blind leap for the ankle tap Absolutely nailed it, dude faceplanted at like 33-ish kmph and slid for 10 meters on his face and the couple hundred spectators had a good laugh at his expense. My fullback made sure to rub it in too. Poor guy did look pretty goofy gliding across the field on his face with his legs dangling in the air behind him 😆 He had a quiet game after that

I'm so excited. He will make the NFL. That's NFL speed right there.

In Rugby there's a lot of kicking, to open up room. It prevents the defence blitzing and creates all sorts of tactical advantages and angles. In some ways it's similar to a deep throw in American Football, except in Rees-Zammit's case he's dropping the ball into a space for himself to run onto, as generally rugby teams defend in a line with one deep guy (generally someone who's really quick, sturdy and has sure hands catching a high punt style kick) behind to try and mop up those kicks.

Very intriguing. They say he'll play some receiver which requires a lot more nuance and learning curve than RB. Curious your thoughts on his transition to catching a football would be? Seeing as they are never catching a forward pass at different angles and speed.

So I'm an American football fan in Washington State. Never heard of this guy but he's apparently trying to make it to the NFL. In the NFL we use the 40-yard dash as the barometer for speed. A 4.4 second time is elite, anything faster than that is insanity. I tried to convert the 100 m time of this guy, to a 40yard dash and his would be like less than 4 seconds which has literally never been done in the NFL. I don't think I did the conversion right but the point with this guy is..... He's really fucking fast 😂😂😂
