*****The Louis Rees-Zammit Thread*****

[Dante84]

[Doing a rare **player thread** for a non-drafted player so we can have a centralized repository for all things LRZ aka 'Rees Lightning'. Here's a link to the original LRZ signing thread by RunKC.]


Highlights







Podcast where he talks about the signing (and mentions he can run a 4.2 forty; he'll be a KR at first, then slot/HB when he learns the plays.)



LRZ meeting the crew and getting a Mahomes/Stroupe workout in

Since Chukwuebuka Godrick is Kansas City's designated international player, the Chiefs probably didn’t offer LRZ one of their 16 regular practice squad spots. If Godrick wasn’t on the team, I’m sure LRZ would have been offered a spot.

That is the only explanation that makes sense to me but it is just a guess. I haven’t seen anywhere where the Chiefs offered a regular practice squad spot to him.

Seems like if LRZ was savvy and self aware, he'd recognize that he needs at least ONE good year on a practice squad/intensive offseason program to develop pro fundamentals... instead he's getting ahead of his ski's and jumps ship from the Master to his apprentice

We'll see how it works out, Cotton... but his long term chances just took a huge hit

Yep. He doesn't currently belong on any active NFL roster.
