Worcester Warriors hooker Jack Singleton has been called up by England as extra cover for Luke Cowan-Dickie.
The uncapped 22-year-old has been included as a precaution after Cowan-Dickie, who provided back-up to Jamie George, experienced hamstring tightness during the first Test against South Africa in Johannesburg.
He will arrive at the squad's base north of Durban on Monday.
England defence coach Paul Gustard said: "We've only got two hookers in camp so we have to be careful. Luke hasn't been ruled out of Saturday yet."
England were unable to provide a definitive update on Joe Launchbury, who sat out the first Test because of a calf injury.
Saracens pair Maro Itoje and Nick Isiekwe were the starting second rows in Johannesburg but the latter was the victim of a tactical substitution shortly before half-time to place his role in the remainder of the tour in doubt.
Uncapped Jonny Hill is the only other specialist lock in the squad with Brad Shields an option in the position if Launchbury is ruled out once again.
South Africa recovered from 24-3 down to beat England 42-39 in a thrilling match at Ellis Park on Saturday in what was a fifth straight defeat for Eddie Jones' team.
