Luke Brooks is also facing an extended period on the sidelines after suffering a hamstring injury in the second half of the same game.
Brooks also returned to Sydney earlier than his teammates on Friday for tests, which confirmed a Grade 2 hamstring strain. He is likely to be out for 4-6 weeks.
Wests Tigers will play the Melbourne Storm at Campbelltown Sports Stadium on Saturday, June 17th.
