The Leicester lock replaces club colleague George Martin in the sole change to the side that beat France
England have made a single change to their starting lineup for the match against Scotland, bringing in Ollie Chessum in the second row. Chessum's return is aimed at addressing England's lineout issues, which have been a problem area in recent matches. Chessum, who last started for England in the 2022 Six Nations, is expected to provide stability in the set piece. His inclusion is a response to the retirement of Courtney Lawes, which has left a gap in England's forward pack. Chessum's ability to lift and contest the lineout is seen as a key asset, and his performance against France, where he played a crucial role in England's victory, has been highlighted as evidence of his value to the team. With Chessum and Jamie George in the side, England hope to improve their lineout execution and build on the momentum gained from their win against France.
