32岁的布里斯班野马队前锋科里·詹森因被诊断出双肺血栓而宣布立即退役[1]。这一诊断在他参加第七轮对阵韦斯特老虎队的比赛后被确认,医生告知他需要终身服用血液稀释剂[1]。詹森表示,"继续从事橄榄球运动对我来说已不再安全"[1],为了家人和自身健康,他无法再继续职业生涯。

Brisbane Broncos forward Corey Jensen has announced his immediate retirement from professional rugby league following a diagnosis of pulmonary embolisms in both lungs[1]. The 32-year-old player was diagnosed after the club's round seven match against Wests Tigers and has been advised by medical professionals that he will require lifelong blood-thinning medication[1].
Jensen stated that continuing his playing career would no longer be safe for himself and his family[1]. "It's become clear it's no longer safe for me to continue playing rugby league," he said, acknowledging the difficulty of stepping away from the sport but prioritizing his health and his family's future[1].
Brisbane coach Michael Maguire praised Jensen's contributions to the organization, describing him as "the rock of a lot of things that have gone on in the organisation"[1]. Jensen's professional career began in 2017 with North Queensland, where he was part of the Cowboys' historic premiership victory[1]. He later joined Brisbane, where he made 95 appearances and was instrumental in the Broncos' 2024 premiership win[1].
