England wing Henry Arundell has escaped a ban after receiving a red card during Saturday’s Six Nations defeat by Scotland.
A disciplinary panel ruled that the gameday sanction for his two yellow card offences was sufficient.
Arundell was sent off for failing to release before contesting a ruck and making contact in the air with Scottish counterpart Kyle Steyn.
The two yellow cards resulted in a 20-minute red card during the Calcutta Cup clash at Murrayfield.
Arundell is now free to play immediately and is available for England's upcoming match against Ireland at Twickenham on Saturday.
