Josh Lewsey is back in the England side for the Calcutta Cup clash with Scotland, after recovering from a shoulder injury.
The Wasps full-back missed England’s victory over Italy 10 days ago but is back at full fitness and reclaims the number 15 jersey from club colleague Tom Voyce, who drops back to the bench.
The only other change made by head coach Andy Robinson for the trip to Murrayfield on Saturday is to replace the injured Matt Stevens with Leicester tight-head prop Julian White.
Stevens impressed against both Wales and Italy but strained his shoulder in Bath’s weekend defeat to London Irish. White starts his first England game in more than a year.
Robinson has made three changes to the bench. White’s promotion opens a spot among the replacements for Perpignan prop Perry Freshwater, while uncapped Leicester hooker George Chuter replaces Bath’s Lee Mears.
With Lewsey back and Voyce on the bench, Gloucester’s James Simpson-Daniel - who scored England’s final try against Italy - is forced out of the equation.
