Injury Update: Nikorima sidelined for 6 weeks

Scans have confirmed Dolphins' five-eighth Kodi Nikorima will miss 6 weeks with a hamstring injury.

Nikorima sustained the injury in last Saturday's victory over the Rabbitohs, coming off in the 38th minute after pulling up on a defensive run.

A scan this week has set Nikorima's initial rehab timeline for a return to play in either Round 23 or 24, meaning he should only miss 3-4 games with Dolphins byes this week and in Round 21.
