Louis Rees-Zammit finally got to experience a football game at his new home field when the Kansas City Chiefs faced the Detroit Lions at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday afternoon
Rees-Zammit was a star rugby player overseas before joining the Chiefs via the International Player Pathway, and while he has plenty of experience as a professional athlete, the sheer scale of Arrowhead seemed to give him pause after Kansas City’s loss to Detroit.
In two pictures that were posted to Twitter by FOX 4 sports anchor Harold R. Kuntz, Rees-Zammit was spotted taking in the grand spectacle on his new home turf after fans exited the stadium:

While his NFL career is still in its infancy, Rees-Zammit has already proven to be an asset for the Chiefs’ offense and special teams unit during the preseason.
Expect to continue seeing the former rugger in action against the Chicago Bears on August 22 as he vies for a spot on Kansas City’s 53-man roster.
