Newcastle Falcons have announced the signing of former Scotland flanker Tyrone Holmes.
"Tyrone is a good player who spent last week with us on our training camp in Yorkshire, and made a very favourable impression," said Falcons director of rugby Dean Richards.
"He has had a couple of injuries but is back to his best now, and he has a big part to play."
30-year-old Holmes has spent the past three seasons at Glasgow Warriors, where he helped win the Pro 12 title last year.
He will be involved for the Falcons during Saturday's pre-season friendly against Nottingham in Darlington.
