Former England winger Christian Wade has completed his return to rugby by signing with Top 14 outfit Racing 92.
He has been searching for a club after his journey in American football ended when he was released by the Buffalo Bills in April.
The speedster said in a social media post: “I’ve made my return to rugby with an amazing team and I can’t wait to start this new chapter.”
Speaking to Coventry Telegraph, he added: “I’m going to be here for the rest of the year. This is officially my comeback to the world of rugby.
“I did four years in the NFL, had a great time, great experience, was able to make some good friends.
“I learned a lot of different stuff that has added to my career in terms of how I approach sports in general, especially at the elite level and I feel as though I’ve got a new level of expertise and experience I can bring to this team.
“Everyone knows about Racing but, having been in the environment for a week or so now, I can say this is probably the best environment I’ve been in and definitely one of the best teams in the world.”
