Former rugby star Louis Rees-Zammit says he would not pursue a career in the NFL if he didn't believe he could make it as he gears up for his crucial Pro Day.

Louis Rees-Zammit insists he has full belief he can make it in the NFL as he approaches a defining moment in his headline transition from rugby to football. The former Wales and Gloucester star announced at the beginning of the year he was stepping away from rugby to pursue a career in the NFL as part of the International Player Pathway programme, with his decision arriving on the eve of the Six Nations.

'I have no regrets, the only regret I'd have is if I didn't do this,' he said. 'I'd regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't give this a go, I fully believe I can make this happen. 'I still support the boys at both Wales and Gloucester and no doubt I'll be going to watch them. 'No regret or guilt, I'm loving being here and the opportunity I'm getting.
