Polish international Jan Bednarek is also out of this weekend's game with a knee issue, while loanee Albert Gronbaek remains unavailable.
"We have a couple of injuries, unfortunately," Rusk said when previewing his side's game against Arsenal.
"Taylor had the nasty one last week, which will obviously rule him out. Jan Bednarak's still been struggling with his knee.
"It's unlikely anything will change with that, and Albert Gronbae has been struggling with his Achilles. We've a couple out, so a little bit of adapting for this one."
