Dawson’s suspension came after a physical altercation with fellow player agent Chris Orr outside a Port Macquarie pub in 2024. The suspension expires today.
Walsh’s management, which has continued to work with Walsh throughout Dawson’s suspension, believes the Super Bowl champs deal has the potential to turn the NRL player into a global sports star.
Meanwhile, the 24-year-old continues his recovery from ankle surgery.
While he has had a very tame 2026 season, Broncos coach Michael Maguire is said to be confident that Walsh can return in full force next year.
Kangaroos coach Kevin Walters has not yet ruled Walsh out of contention for the upcoming Rugby League World Cup.
