Ethan Grayson will rejoin Newcastle Falcons for the 2025-26 season on a one-year contract.

The versatile back spent the first half of the current campaign on a short-term deal with Newcastle from Major League Rugby side San Diego Legion.

Grayson, 22, played nine games for the Falcons between September and December, scoring 28 points, before returning to California for the new US season.

But having impressed at Kingston Park, he will return once he has concluded his commitments with San Diego this summer.

“I’m delighted to be able to bring Ethan back to Newcastle for a second spell,” said Newcastle’s consultant director of rugby Steve Diamond.

“He came and did a great job for us during the autumn, playing a key part in some important wins, and there was always a desire from both parties to get a more permanent deal nailed down.”
