Owen Farrell likely to join British & Irish Lions squad due to Elliot Daly's injury

British and Irish Lions head coach Andy Farrell is preparing to replace Elliot Daly after Daly suffered a forearm injury during a match against the Reds. Daly was one of the standout players before the injury occurred while tackling Reds skipper Jock Campbell.

Farrell mentioned that Daly is in pain and undergoing an X-ray to assess the extent of the injury. Depending on the results, Daly's tour continuation may be in question, and a replacement might be needed.

Various names like Tom Jordan and Blair Murray have been suggested as potential replacements due to their versatility. The possibility of Owen Farrell, Andy Farrell's son, joining the squad has also been speculated, offering leadership and playmaking skills.

Although not confirmed, Andy Farrell hinted at Owen's potential inclusion in case of injuries. Owen's experience and pedigree could be valuable for the Lions despite his recent lack of international play.
