The USA international, 25, limped off in the 29th minute of the match.
Ex-Scunthorpe player Holmes has scored three goals for the Rams this term, all coming in his past eight appearances.
"To lose a player like that at this stage isn't something we can enjoy, but it gives someone else an opportunity to impress," said Derby boss Phillip Cocu.
