Media cameras caught the incident that left Brisbane fans fearing for the start of the NRL season, given Reynolds is such an instrumental member of the team that made the grand final last year.

9News reporter Ben Dobbin shared the footage on social media, with the 33-year-old assisted from the paddock in Brisbane.

But a couple of hours later Dobbin went on Triple M radio and provided a positive update on the situation.

“He had scans this afternoon,” Dobbin said.

“Nothing serious, the scans were positive.

“(Reynolds messaged and) he just said, ‘Muscle and ligament damage, I’ll be back training next week’.”

The Broncos also put out a statement on the injury.

“Adam picked up the injury in a drill towards the end of today’s session,” head of performance Adam Ballard said.

“He had a scan this afternoon… which showed a foot muscle strain.

“We’ll see how Adam pulls up over the next 24 hours but he is a quick healer and we expect him to be back running in the coming days.”

Reynolds played 23 games last season for the Broncos, helping the side through to a grand final appearance against Penrith.
