Huddersfield winger Jermaine McGillvary will miss up to six weeks with a torn quad.
England international McGillvary managed to score the Giants' match-winning try against Wakefield last Friday despite the injury.
He was hurt early in the match but stayed on the pitch and raced onto a kick from Danny Brough nine minutes from the end to seal a 24-16 victory in round two of the Betfred Super League.
"I went for a scan last night and it's a grade two quad tear," McGillvary said. "I should be back within three to six weeks.
"I did the same injury last year, although not in the same place, and this doesn't seem as bad, so I'm optimistic it will be sooner rather than later."
McGillvary, who has scored four tries in his club's first matches of the season, admits he probably made the injury worse by playing on.
"It wouldn't have helped," he said.
"I did it about 10 minutes in. It was pretty painful but there was no-one on the bench and I thought I could still do a job rather than putting someone in a difficult position on the wing. There was no out-and-out winger.
"I'm one of the senior players so I need to set a good example, especially playing outside some young lads. I didn't want to complain too much and whinge.
"For the try, luckily Broughy saw me when he made his break and I just ran as fast as I could. I probably wasn't the fastest but I got there in the end."
