Agbonlahor headed home the winner for Villa in their 1-0 victory over Chicago Fire during their latest US tour match. However, he later departed due to injury, although the club say the problem is not serious.
A message posted on Villa's official Twitter page read: "Gabby Agbonlahor injury not as bad as first feared. Out for two weeks."
Meanwhile, Agbonlahor has confirmed he expects everybody to shake the hand of John Terry next season. Terry was recently cleared of aiming comments of a racial nature at Anton Ferdinand, and Agbonlahor insists Premier League players want to set an example.
"Players like me have to set a good example to kids," Agbonlahor said in the Sun. "If we won't shake someone's hand then they see that and go into their Saturday and Sunday leagues and they won't do it either.
"They might feel that's okay because they saw us refuse to do the same on TV. A lot of kids love their football and watch us all the time - that's why we have to be good role models.
"I don't think there will be players who won't shake his hand. I think they'll all do it. When thousands and thousands are watching, you're not going to refuse someone's hand easily.
"You're just going to go down everyone in the line because it's on the pitch and you have to show your professionalism."
