How fast is Louis Rees-Zammit’s? What’s the Chiefs’ player 40-yard dash time?
Rees-Zammit’s transition from rugby to American football was no ordinary leap. As part of the 2024 International Player Pathway Program, he stepped onto the turf for his NFL Pro Day. All eyes were on the stopwatch as he prepared for the 40-yard dash—the ultimate test of acceleration and raw speed.
The Lightning Bolt: 4.44 Seconds
The clock started ticking, and Rees-Zammit exploded off the line. His powerful strides devoured the distance, and in a mere 4.44 seconds.
To put Rees-Zammit’s feat in perspective, consider this: Since 2013, only 11 players have achieved a sub-4.30-second sprint at the NFL Combine. His speed on the rugby field now faced scrutiny in the world of American Football. Scouts marveled at his acceleration, wondering if he could be the next cross-sport sensation.
The Kansas City Chiefs had their own speed merchant. Isiah Pacheco, the running back, showcased his wheels during the 2022 NFL Draft Combine. His 40-yard dash time? A swift 4.37 seconds. While not breaking any records, Pacheco’s speed was evident. He wasn’t a Ferrari in open space, but his aggressive running style compensated for it. Facing a stacked box (eight or more defenders) during the postseason, Pacheco averaged 4.7 yards per carry—a testament to his tenacity.
Rees-Zammit and Pacheco—two athletes, two sports, one common denominator: speed. Whether it’s the rugby pitch or the gridiron, their lightning-fast strides captivate fans and leave opponents in their wake. So next time you watch a game, remember these names: Louis Rees-Zammit and Isiah Pacheco speed demons who redefine what’s possible
