JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram sustained a hamstring injury during pregame warmups Sunday and was ruled out an hour before kickoff against Cleveland.

Engram was apparently injured after the team submitted its inactive list. Without him, second-year pro Brenton Strange is expected to see more playing time.

Engram caught a career-high 114 passes for 963 yards and four touchdowns last season. He had one reception for 5 yards in the season opener at Miami.
