Reece Walsh signs ambassador deal with Seattle Seahawks

Brisbane Broncos fullback Reece Walsh has signed an ambassadorial deal with the NFL's Seattle Seahawks. The partnership is a strategic move by the franchise to expand its brand and fanbase within the Australian and New Zealand markets.

Walsh, 24, will serve as a public face for the Seahawks in Australia, acting as a bridge between rugby league audiences and the growing American football community. While the deal aims to build Walsh's global profile and presence in the United States, he remains under contract with the Broncos through the end of the 2029 NRL season.

The announcement follows recent momentum for American football in Australia, including a high-profile NFL match between the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
