The 32-year-old has struggled with injury since the end of last season.
After featuring twice in August he spent three months on the sidelines before making a comeback in the 2-2 draw at QPR earlier this month.
"He is hugely disappointed, but he'll be here every day with the players, giving it his all," boss Jonathan Woodgate told the club website.
