The 33-year-old, who is out of contract in the summer, could start against Swansea next Tuesday with Brad Guzan returning to Aston Villa on Saturday and Vito Mannone and Mark Oxley both injured.
If Duke was to start against the Swans, it would mark an incredible turnaround in fortunes for him after he spent an unsuccessful loan spell at Derby last month.
Boss Nigel Pearson told the Mail: "We'll just have to see how that one develops.
"We've got Matt Duke back now and hopefully Vito will be available again before the end of the season, but we'll have to be prepared for the fact he might not be."
