Report: Eddie Jones To Rest Tigers Duo During July Tests

Eddie Jones set to rest senior England players such as Ben Youngs and George Ford in July fixtures against USA and Canada, the Daily Mail reports.


Jones could hand a test debut to the likes of Marcus Smith against the North American opposition according to the report by Chris Foy.

Scrumhalf Ben Youngs and pivot George Ford are among those expected to be rested, as too is Jonny May. 

The report suggests the likes of Billy Vunipola or Kyle Sinckler could captain the side if they are not rested with Sam Underhill also mentioned as a potential captain.

George Ford has regularly stepped in to captain the side when Owen Farrell has been rested or replaced.
