Murley sustained a foot injury on debut against Ireland in Dublin with Steve Borthwick now contemplating the balance of his backline and back row.
England wing Cadan Murley will miss the Six Nations clash with France with Steve Borthwick considering changes to the side beaten in Dublin.
Having fielded a short, scavenging back row at the Aviva Stadium with the Curry twins joined by Ben Earl, Borthwick may well add extra size to the unit against a tall and physical French pack.
Head coach Borthwick will be considering the balance of his back row, backline and bench as he looks to address familiar flaws that surfaced again in Ireland.
“I think that back row worked really hard and had a big impact on the game,” Borthwick said after the defeat to Ireland.
