Louis Rees-Zammit ( LOO-iss; born 2 February 2001) is a Welsh professional rugby union player for Prem Rugby side Bristol Bears and former American football wide receiver. His main position is winger. In 2024, Rees-Zammit moved from rugby union to American football with the goal of playing in the NFL. In March 2024, he trained and competed in the NFL's International Player Pathway Program (IPPP), after which he was signed to the Kansas City Chiefs as a running back and trained as a return specialist but he was not chosen for the Chiefs' final 53-player team roster for the 2024 season. He subsequently signed for the Jacksonville Jaguars as part of their practice squad as a wide receiver for 2024 and was made a free agent after the end of the season, before he was re-signed in February 2025. In July 2025, Rees-Zammit announced his return to rugby union following an 18-month stint in NFL, citing his reason as 'wasting his talent'. He joined Bristol Bears on 14 August.
