Having gone almost a year without playing competitive rugby, Chris Ashton was happy to find another Premiership employer in February—never mind the current league leaders, Leicester Tigers.
The 44-cap England international has agreed to leave his last three clubs by mutual consent and terminated contracts early at each turn, so it was a surprise when Leicester came sniffing.
It's not as shocking that Ashton was all too happy to join a sixth Premiership outfit by moving to Welford Road, where he's now working under a familiar face in former Saracens team-mate Steve Borthwick.
