Ryan Jack’s comeback from injury has been put on hold.
The midfielder hasn’t played since February 21 when he was replaced by Glen Kamara after less than half an hour of a 4-1 win over Dundee United.

Ryan Jack, we’ve been told to just slow down a little bit on Ryan. So he’ll probably be another couple of weeks, all being well.
Since mid-June it has been reported that Jacko in 7/10 days away from resuming full training.
