Scotland centre Huw Jones is expected to miss the remainder of the Six Nations with knee ligament damage.

The 25-year-old suffered the injury during Scotland's defeat to Ireland last Saturday and scan results suggest 'the injury recovery time would likely be beyond the reaches of the current campaign'.

Jones has returned to Glasgow Warriors for treatment and faces a race against time to be fit for their Champions Cup quarter-final against Saracens on March 30.

Meanwhile, Stuart Hogg damaged shoulder ligaments during the first half of the 22-13 loss to Ireland.

The full-back is under the joint care of the Glasgow and Scotland medical teams, with no timeframe on his return.

Scotland forward Ryan Wilson has already been ruled out of the rest of the Six Nations after suffering knee ligament damage against Ireland.
