Interesting for sure.

The standard of open field tackling in the NFL is a long way below both rugby league and rugby union so if he gets a screen pass and a 1vs1 run at a safety or linebacker I would back him to beat them on speed and step or power.
One big adjustment he will have to make is getting used to being tackled with both feet in the air making a catch as that is an instant penalty in rugby so rarely happens.
