Newcastle Falcons have signed fly-half Ethan Grayson on a short-term deal in time for the start of the 2024-25 Premiership season.
The 22-year-old, who can also play at centre, joins the Falcons until the end of the year after which he will resume his contract with Major League Rugby side San Diego Legion.
Son of former England fly-half Paul Grayson and a Northampton Saints academy graduate, Grayson also turned out for Championship side Bedford Blues.
"I'm in between seasons with San Diego and the timing has worked out well, so I'll be here until the new year and am really looking forward to it,"
"We got to the quarter-finals of Major League Rugby which finished in August and starts again in January, and during the interim I'll be here in Newcastle trying to make a positive contribution."
Newcastle begin their Premiership campaign at home to Bristol Bears on Friday.
