Louis Rees-Zammit (/ˈlɪs/ LOO-iss; born 2 February 2001) is a Welsh athlete who plays as a professional American football wide receiver for the Jacksonville Jaguars of the National Football League (NFL). He previously played professional rugby union. From 2018 Rees-Zammit played in the position of winger for the Gloucester Rugby club in the English Premiership, and also at international level for Wales between 2020 and 2023 and the British & Irish Lions in 2021. Then, in January 2024, Rees-Zammit declared his intention to swap rugby for American football and leave the United Kingdom and move abroad to the United States in order to play in the NFL, and has since signed to the Jacksonville, Florida team.

In March 2024, Rees-Zammit trained and competed in the NFL's International Player Pathway Program. After completing the program, he was signed to the Kansas City Chiefs in the position of running back and trained as a kickoff specialist. However, he did not make the final 53-player team roster for the 2024 NFL season. He subsequently signed to the Florida based Jacksonville Jaguars as a part of their practice squad in a new position of wide receiver.
