The 26-year-old utility back, who made his Ireland debut last November, is aiming to return to full fitness in time for pre-season, said an Ulster Ruguby statement.

Ulster centre Stuart McCloskey is also a doubt for the vital Pro14 game against Edinburgh at Murrayfield on Friday.

Ulster are second in the Conference B with two rounds of fixtures to go in the regular season, although both Benetton and Edinburgh are within three points of the Irish province.
