Last season, he became the only player to beat a century of defenders in one league campaign since data has been recorded.
And Boyd said: "I’m thrilled that Taqele has re-signed with Saints – although no doubt there will be a few opposition defenders in the Premiership who won’t be so happy about the news.
“It’s no secret that ‘Big T’ is a huge asset for us; his ball-carrying ability is almost second to none and we know he will create opportunities to score tries every match.

"I’m confident he will continue to improve in black, green and gold.”
