Head coach Kent Austin told TSN's Farhan Lalji after the game that the injury "did not look good."
The 26-year-old recorded a single tackle Saturday as the winless Ticats fell 60-1 to the Calgary Stampeders in one of the worst losses in franchise history.
Kanneh, who signed in Hamilton this winter, recorded 52 tackles, one sack and three interceptions in 2016 for the Grey Cup champion Ottawa Redblacks. He was an All-Star with the Redblacks in 2015.
