Jack Walker 'confirms' Hull FC exit after no job revelation
Hull FC's Jack Walker appears to have confirmed that he has left the club. The fullback, who Hull Live exclusively revealed last month had been informed that he was surplus to requirements alongside two of his teammates, Liam Tindall and Morgan Smith, has said that he no longer has a job.
Walker made the revelation on his new YouTube page. Within it, he posted a clip while in a gym stating that he is no longer training with a club.
The 25-year-old had been told that he was no longer considered a part of first-team plans at the MKM Stadium under new head coach John Cartwright, and that appears to have resulted in an immediate exit from the club.

In the vlog, Walker said: "With not training anymore with a club, the challenge, physically and mentally, is to do what is needed when you don't have to go in.
"When you're training, you have to go in, you have to do your gym sessions, your bronco tests, because it's your job. Not having a job now, you've got to do it off your own back which is a mental challenge when you haven't got anyone with you really, it's just you on your own. It will be a nice little mental challenge, which can only make me stronger really. I'm looking forward to it."
Walker made 16 appearances for the Black and Whites during the 2024 season, which came after a previous loan spell in 2022. However, the arrival of Jordan Rapana, as well as the emergence of Logan Moy, had seen the club decide to move in a different direction moving into the new campaign.
Walker was just 18 when he won the Super League Grand Final with Leeds Rhinos in 2017. Injuries have hampered his career but he has still made 112 appearances, 94 of those coming in Super League.
