Rookie receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter is among 12 Jacksonville Jaguars not playing in Sunday's preseason game against the host New Orleans Saints.

The Heisman Trophy winner at Colorado played 10 snaps on offense and eight on defense in Jacksonville's 31-25 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Aug. 9.

Starting players who sat out against the Saints include defensive tackle Arik Armstead (back) and linebacker Dennis Gardeck (knee).

Also not participating with injuries according to the team are right tackle Anton Harrison, guard/tackle Chuma Edoga, offensive tackle Cole Van Lanen, defensive tackle Maason Smith, linebacker Jalen McLeod and cornerbacks Tyson Campbell and Montaric Brown and safety Caleb Ramsey.

Receiver Dyami Brown also sat out despite the team not announcing he has an injury.
