One of Boris's progeny? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sprog

'one' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'of boris's progeny?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'SPROG' is hidden within 'boris progeny'.

(Other definitions for sprog that I've seen before include "Kid" , "Infant" , "Child, colloquially" , "Child; recruit (mil. slang)" , "Baby (slang)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
