Josh Addo-Carr is looking to rebuild his NRL career after being sacked by the Canterbury Bulldogs.

The former Australia and NSW winger failed a roadside drug test, and then misled the club on the results, with the club deciding to rip up the 29-year-olds contract as a result.

He still has plenty to offer to many teams, and one Sydney based side has reportedly reached out.

The Daily Telegraph reported on Monday Addo-Carr met with Parramatta Eels after his sacking from the Bulldogs.

Addo-Carr and new coach Jason Ryles worked together at the Melbourne Storm where Addo-Carr became one of the best wingers in the games whilst Ryles was an assistant.

The Eels also have a decent amount of cap space and vacancies in their backline.

Captain Clint Gutherson has departed, as has former fan favourite winger Maika Sivo; Blaize Talagi has also left the Eels in the off-season.

They have signed some reinforcements in the area, with Zac Lomax joining from the Dragons and able to play centre or wing, whilst Isaiah Iongi is tipped to be a long-term option at fullback.

The Daily Telegraph is reporting no formal offers have been submitted to Addo-Carr and his representatives, though it is said they will be meeting with prospective clubs this week.

Addo-Carr knows his career is at a crossroads and he needs to do work to rehabilitate his image in the eyes of clubs and fans.

Over the weekend, video emerged of Addo-Carr working on a construction site whilst he weighs up his next move in the NRL or beyond.

He has played 179 NRL games and scored 149 tries for three different clubs.
