Scotland winger Lee Jones will play no part in his side's Six Nations fixture against Italy this weekend in Rome.
The 23-year-old is suffering with concussion that he sustained during the 32-14 loss to Ireland in Dublin last Saturday.
"He is doing well. He will have a few days' rest and recovery and will be assessed later in the week," said Scotland team doctor James Robson.
"He is ruled out of Saturday's match against Italy."
Scotland last won in Rome back in 2006.
