Newport Gwent Dragons have signed 25-year-old tight-head prop Shaun Knight from Gloucester.

Dragons boss Lyn Jones says Knight has the chance of a new start having "fallen out of favour" at Kingsholm.

"I know a couple of the front rowers they have at the region and am looking forward to learning off experienced props like Boris Stankovich and Brok Harris," said Knight.

Since 2009-10, Knight has made 60 Gloucester appearances.

Knight joined Edinburgh on a six-week loan deal in 2011 and went to Moseley in February, 2015 in a similar arrangement.
