George Kruis a doubt for Six Nations opener

George Kruis is a doubt for England‘s Six Nations opener against France on Saturday after picking up a knee injury in training yesterday.
The Saracens lock, who was still named in Eddie Jones’ 25-man squad to prepare the clash at Twickenham, will go for a further medical assessment this morning to determine the extent of the injury.
 
Several players who missed the autumn internationals return including James Haskell, Maro Itoje and Jack Nowell.
Joe Marler is also included having recovered from a fractured leg sustained less than a month ago.
Jones will name his side to face France on Thursday.
