Parramatta Eels allow Josh Addo-Carr to seek new NRL contract

Parramatta Eels have informed Josh Addo-Carr that he can leave the club if he secures a new deal for next season. The Eels will not re-sign him beyond 2027, following his recent clearance to return after an off-field incident. Addo-Carr, a former NSW Blues and Kangaroos winger, was initially investigated for failing a roadside drug test, but his secondary sample came back negative. With James Schiller signed for 2027, the club is looking to move forward, potentially allowing the 31-year-old to exit immediately if he finds a new team.
