The Brisbane Broncos have confirmed Adam Reynolds has only suffered a minor hamstring injury, while outside back Deine Mariner will miss a number of weeks.
Reynolds didn’t feature in the second half of Brisbane’s Thursday night clash against the Melbourne Storm, leaving the field distraught after suffering a hamstring injury.
Original concerns were that he had done a serious amount of damage to the hamstring and could miss an extended period, however, Brisbane have now provided an update suggesting scans have only shown a minor hamstring strain.
“Adam underwent scans back in Brisbane today at the Qscan Clive Berghofer Facility which revealed a minor hamstring strain – we will see how he pulls up in the coming days before he works into a rehab program,” Brisbane’s head of performance Dave Ballard said in a statement confirming the news.
It means Reynolds is a chance to feature in next weekend’s derby against the Dolphins, although could still miss a week or two.
Brisbane will likely take no risks with their veteran halfback this early in the year, and hamstring strains are notoriously tricky to return from.
