Here’s the latest I can share about AJ Brimson, based on recent reporting:
- April 2026: Reports from The Daily Mail indicate AJ Brimson welcomed a new son, Junior, joining his family (Beckham already existing). This is a personal milestone for Brimson off the field.[2]
- Club status and 2026 season: Coverage suggests the Gold Coast Titans were struggling early in the 2026 NRL season, sitting near the bottom of the ladder with only a couple of victories from their first six matches, alongside Brimson’s ongoing return-from-injury narrative.[2]
- Injury and contract context: In 2024 Brimson suffered a significant groin injury that required surgery; reports from that period noted a hoped return for 2025 and a contract extension to 2030, underscoring his long-term role with the Titans.[1][3]
- State of Origin / international play: There have been discussions and media coverage about Brimson’s eligibility and interest in representative duties (including potential Origin opportunities) in 2026, reflecting ongoing debates around eligibility rules and his availability to different teams.[5][9]
If you’d like, I can pull more specifics on:
- Brimson’s injury status and expected return timeline for 2026.
- The Titans’ current season performance and Brimson’s on-field contributions (tries, meters, tackles).
- Any official announcements about contracts or squad selections.
Would you like me to look up the latest official club updates or summarize Brimson’s 2026 season stats so far? I can also tailor the briefing to what you care about most (injury, contract, or on-field performance).
