Who is Josh Rogers? Broncos playmaker replaces Adam Reynolds
Rogers was born in Perth, Western Australia.
The 27-year-old had to be patient before earning his NRL debut, spending several seasons in the Queensland Cup.
His first start in reserve grade was for the Burleigh Bears in 2018, before establishing himself in the side the following season and guiding them to 14 wins from 16 games.
He stuck with the Bears until 2022, named the competition's five-eighth that season, as well as picking up the top points scorer gong.
Rogers then switched to the Wynnum Manly Seagulls, where he maintained his high level of performance before returning home to the Bears.
