Teenage star admitted to hospital after rupturing his spleen
Hull KR have revealed that teenage forward Jordan Cox has suffered a ruptured spleen.
The 19-year-old prop, who has made eight Super League appearances so far this season, fell ill after playing in the Robins' Under-20s match at Wigan last Saturday.
He was admitted to Wigan Infirmary but is on his way to making a full recovery and is expected to return home in the next few days.
Rovers chief executive Mike Smith said: "It was obviously a serious problem for Jordan and we're delighted that he's on the mend."
