Dangerfield suffered a knock to his knee late in Sunday's 16-point win over Collingwood.
The club said the acting co-captain was sore but he was expected to play against West Coast at Adelaide Oval on Saturday.
The 24-year-old will be managed throughout the week.
"There's nothing like getting hurt in the last few minutes of a game," Dangerfield told afc.com.au.
"It'll be a bit sore and swollen, but we have fantastic medical staff and I'm sure I'll be sweet to go next weekend."
