Jack de Belin signed a fresh contract with St George Illawarra worth about $3million in the middle of his rape trial but the details were kept confidential while he remained in front of the courts.
A jury found the suspended Dragons forward, 30, not guilty of a sexual assault charge - but failed to reach a verdict on five further counts.
Judge Nicole Noman discharged the Sydney jury after they failed to break a deadlock on the remaining charges just before 3pm on Monday afternoon.
That means de Belin and his friend Callan Sinclair, 24, face the prospect of a possible third criminal trial.

Former NRL player Tony Williams has been axed by his new club the New York Freedom over social media comments about Jarryd Hayne s prison sentence.
Williams was one of two former teammates to take to Instagram on Thursday, claiming an innocent brotherly had been sent to jail.
The former Kangaroos second-rower also labelled the victim and justice system as flops , as part of his Instagram stories.
The posts prompted near-immediate action from the Freedom, who signed Williams last month as the highest-profile recruit in the new North American Rugby League. In light of the recent comments made by Tony Williams regarding the sentencing of Jarryd Hayne, New York Freedom can confirm that the contract between Tony and the club has been terminated, the club said in a statement.
