Jaguars WR Louis Rees-Zammit is leaving the NFL to return to rugby

Louis Rees-Zammit is pulling the plug on his bid to make it in the NFL a little earlier than expected.

Rees-Zammit said in June that he'd give it another year or two before returning to rugby, but the Jaguars wide receiver announced on Instagram that he's going back to his first sport.

"Its been a great experience but its time to come home," Rees-Zammit wrote.

"Ive decided that this is the best time to make this decision to give myself time to get everything in place for next season."Rees-Zammit signed with the Chiefs last year and spent the season on their practice squad after appearing in three preseason games.

He moved on to the Jaguars this offseason, but will no longer be in the mix as he returns to playing rugby for Wales and at the professional level..
