YORK KNIGHTS have re-signed winger Ben Jones-Bishop from Sheffield Eagles on a deal until the end of the season.
The 36-year-old “enacted a clause in his contract allowing him to leave the club”, the Eagles said.
Jones-Bishop had been at Sheffield since joining at the start of 2022 from York, where he played 19 times and scored nine tries in his first spell.
He is the second player to swap the Eagles for the Knights in as many weeks, following forward Mitch Clark.
A former Super League player with Leeds, Salford and Wakefield, Jones-Bishop scored 60 tries in 92 appearances with Sheffield.
York head coach Mark Applegarth said: “I’m delighted to have Bish over the line.
“He’s a player I’ve worked with before (at Wakefield) and I’m looking forward to working with him again.
“He’ll give us a bit of depth and quality in that back line and take a bit of pressure off those lads that have been covering those wing spots for us.
“We’ve got a proven winner. He’ll add a lot of experience and value to our back five.”
