The injuries to the Titans have resulted in coach Neil Henry selecting Roberts-Davis to play in his preferred position, fullback.
Roberts-Davis has spent his first four matches playing on the wing and has crossed for two tries, including one on his debut against the Newcastle Knights in round 2.
He has spent the majority of his time with the Titans in the U20s on the wing but had a four game stint in the number 1 jersey in 2016.
The 19-year-old had a good strike rate in the position, crossing for three tries across the four matches.
Fullback Jarryd Hayne is expected to remain on the sidelines for the next few weeks.
