The Connacht centre was carted off in the closing stages of Ireland's Second Test loss.
Robbie Henshaw has stepped up for province and country in the last two months. He partnered Bundee Aki in Connacht's midfield as the finished off a superb Guinness PRO12 season in style. In South Africa, he was superb in two tough Tests against the Springboks.
Henshaw finally got his chance in the Irish 13 jersey and excelled in the Cape Town win over South Africa. He was solid in defence, on Saturday, but was one of many Irish players to flag late on as the hosts turned a 26-10 deficit into a 32-26 loss.
Henshaw injured his knee in the closing stages and it hampered him further. He wanted to play on, as his team came under the cosh, but he eventually left on a medical cart, albeit sitting up.
Post-match, Ireland coach Joe Schmidt confirmed the 22-year-old was the biggest injury worry heading into the final Test in the three-game series. He said:
"Robbie Henshaw copped a knock in the knee and it is a little bit inflamed. That will take at least 24 hours for the swelling to go down before we can get a decent look at it. We'll just see how that goes."
We expected to get an update on Henshaw in the coming hours.
