Joe Worsley (London Wasps) has been included in the squad but did not train today after playing for London Wasps on Sunday and he will be assessed by the England medical team in the morning.
Hodgson, 29, played the last of his 31 tests against New Zealand in 2008 - in which he had a dreadful game - and there has been no indication from England that Wilkinson, whose form has been criticised in this Six Nations especially his performance in the narrow 17-12 victory over Italy, in any danger of missing Saturday's game against Ireland.
England, who have won both their matches so far, are expected to name their side to face Ireland - whose chances of repeating their Grand Slam success disappeared in a 33-10 humbling by France last time out - on Tuesday.
The England test 22 to play Ireland in the 2010 RBS 6 Nations on Saturday, February 27 (kick off 4pm) will be announced tomorrow.
