Broncos centre Jack Reed could be forced to retire with coach Wayne Bennett confirming the three-quarter would not feature again in 2016 and will miss Brisbane’s finals campaign.
“He won’t be back this year,” Bennett told Triple M.
The 28-year-old is reportedly set to announce his retirement from rugby league due to ongoing shoulder issues.
It’s understood Reed has discussed an insurance payout from the NRL fearing the injury may impede on his life after football.
“You play week-to-week and you obviously want to be out there. I’ll just keep working at it,” Reed told Channel 7.
The Sunshine Coast junior has played 128 NRL games since making his debut for Brisbane in 2011.
He represented England four times.
