England will discover the extent of Ben Youngs' knee injury on Monday but the Leicester scrum-half is expected to be ruled out for at least one match.
England successfully began their bid for a record third straight outright Six Nations title with a seven-try win over Italy on Sunday but it came at a cost with what looked like a nasty injury to their first-choice scrum-half.
Youngs was injured less than 10 minutes into his 56th start for England, which overtook Matt Dawson's record of most starts for an England scrum-half, with Jones likely to add another No 9 to his squad on Monday.
Leicester's Youngs went down after his left leg appeared to get trapped in the ruck. He had several minutes of treatment on the pitch before being taken off on a stretcher on a golf cart to sympathetic applause from more than 61,000 fans at the Stadio Olimpico.
"Ben will have an examination tomorrow (Monday) so we'll know more after that," head coach Eddie Jones said.
"He's unlikely to be available for the Wales game. It looks like a ligament injury. It's too early to make any sort of prediction, but I'm always optimistic."
Richard Wigglesworth of Saracens is expected to be called up as his replacement.
