Exciting wing talent Jared Rosser will continue to provide fire-power for Dragons after today pledging his future to the region.
Rosser, 21, has put pen to paper on a new contract extension to stay until at least 2022 and becomes the sixth player to sign new terms at Rodney Parade.
A Dragons Academy product, who came through the Under-18s and Under-16s age grade sides, Rosser made his senior debut against Leinster in 2017.
Rosser underlined his attacking treat when he scored a hat-trick in the Guinness PRO14 against Zebre in April 2018 – becoming only the fifth player to score a hat-trick in a senior game for Dragons.
The former Abersychan School student also showcased his talents in the Celtic Cup earlier this season when he scored five tries against Connacht Eagles at Ystrad Mynach.
A potent attacking force, Rosser has now scored 13 tries in 39 appearances for Dragons.
Head Coach Ceri Jones said: “Jared has had a really positive season and shown the rich promise that we all know he has.
“He has had some real standout games, such as the Ospreys derby match at Rodney Parade, and is definitely one for the future who can really kick on now.
“Jared is a Gwent boy, proud to be part of this region, he has come through our Academy system and continues to improve year on year,” added Jones.
“We’re all excited to see how he develops over the next three years and thrilled that Jared will be a key figure as we look to push our region forward.”
Rosser has also impressed on the international stage for Wales Under-20s and was part of the Wales Sevens squad that took part in the Rugby World Cup Sevens in San Francisco in 2018.
“It was a big goal of mine to secure a new contract so to get it sorted is fantastic and I’m excited about the future we can all have here,” said Jared.
“This is my home region, I’ve come through the age grade system and I’m determined to not only improve as a player but also help Dragons move forward.
“Now is the time for me to really kick on and become a senior member of the squad here.”
