Having only joined the Tigers in 2016 after a stint in the Super League with Hull, Rankin will return to England signing a deal to the end of the season with Huddersfield Giants.
The 25-year-old will link up with Australian coach Rick Stone who recently took the helms at Huddersfield and is clearly happy to have Rankin on board.
"The main attraction in Jordan Rankin is his ability to play in nearly every position in the back line," Stone said.
"He’s played in the outside-backs, he’s played in the halves and he’s played a whole NRL season on the wing.
"It’s a good opportunity for him to come over here and play and it’s a great place for him to further his career."
Rankin, who played 23 games for Tigers since joining them last year, is also quite happy to be making the move to Huddersfield.
"I’m really excited to join the Giants. It’s a club I’ve heard a lot about and know are finding some form in the Super League," Rankin said.
"There’s a strong Australian contingent here with Jake Mamo who was coming through at the same time as me, Ryan Hinchcliffe who has won big trophies at Melbourne, Tommy Symonds, Shannon Wakeman.
"I spoke with Rick Stone and knew that joining was a great opportunity for me and I’m looking forward to getting started."
