Huddersfield Giants have released back-rower Josh Jones from his contract by mutual consent, as he continues to deal with concussion-related issues.

The 30-year-old, who has scored 55 tries in 283 games since his debut for St Helens in 2012, had only featured four times in 2023, the last in March.

Great Britain representative Jones played 51 games for the Claret and Gold, under ex-Salford boss Ian Watson.

"This is a sad day," managing director Richard Thewlis told the club website.

"It brings to an end the partnership which had in previous seasons brought great success.

The loss for us for the vast majority of the year of a key strike backrower has proven a blow to the hopes and has emphasized the importance that a fully fit and firing Josh Jones brings to any team."
