Ben Te’o, Mike Brown, Alex Dombrandt and Ben Spencer have been cut from Eddie Jones' England squad to face Wales on Sunday, live on Sky Sports Action.
Head coach Jones has trimmed his crop of players to 33 following England's 12-day training camp in Treviso, Italy with the quartet of players set to miss out - while Jack Nowell will continue his rehabilitation in camp.
England face Wales for their first Quilter International on Sunday at Twickenham, live on Sky Sports Action. They also face Ireland (August 24) at Twickenham and Italy (September 6) in Newcastle as part of their Summer Internationals as well as an away fixture against Wales (August 17) in Cardiff, all on Sky Sports.
"We have worked hard and now move into a four-game preparation phase where the development of the team tactically is paramount," Jones said. "We are grateful for the strong opposition to test our game fitness.
"By the time we fly out on the 8th of September we will be ready to win the Rugby World Cup. We are not there yet but we have four games to get ready.
"Players excluded from being involved in this camp are naturally disappointed but may get another opportunity so they must be ready."
