Admittedly this dude was the first I’d heard of it but it seems like a free way to keep an extra dude. |

I hadn't seen this... but apparently, they only get one exception. https://atozsports.com/kansas-city/c...s-rees-zammit/ |

If they think Rees-Zammit may actually make the squad this year, use the protection on the OT because by all accounts last season, that guy was FAAAAAR away, but incredibly athletic/talented. Probably just basic resource allocation - one slot, use it on the guy who's less likely to make the team but with a slightly higher ceiling, thus a far better candidate for the international exemption anyway (which wouldn't apply if Rees-Zammit is a roster player) |

His speed seems legit from chatter coming out of the minicamp, and with the way this coaching staff craves speed they will give him a chance.

The dude has real pedigree having exceled in another professional sport so I'm not sure I'd just write him off as any random training camp hero. It will be *so* much fun if he can carve out a role. |

I don't know how the IPP works, does he take up a roster spot on the 53 this year or is he basically 54th on the roster?
