- Biography:
Jaiyden Hunt played his junior football with Brothers St Brendans at Rocklea before progressing through the Under 20 and Queensland Cup ranks.
He made his NRL debut for the Dragons in 2021 before the Queensland local returned home to Brisbane in 2024.
Since then, the backrower has made 17 appearances for the Club, consistently stepping up when called upon - particularly during State of Origin periods and times of squad injury.
Hunt's reliability and depth value have been recognised with a one-year contract extension, keeping him at the Broncos through to the end of the 2026 season.
