Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette will miss his third consecutive game with a hamstring injury after being ruled out of Sunday's game against the Houston Texans.

Fournette suffered the injury in the season opener against the New York Giants and missed the next two games. He aggravated it in Week 4 when he returned to play against the New York Jets.

Fournette has just 71 yards on 20 carries this season. T.J. Yeldon (299) again will be the main ball carrier.

Standout defensive Calais Campbell was listed as questionable on Jacksonville's Friday injury report due to an ankle injury.

Campbell has four sacks in six games this season. He posted a career-best 14.5 last season.

Cornerback D.J. Hayden (toe) and tight end James O'Shaughnessy (hip) also will sit out the contest. Cornerback Tre Herndon (hamstring) and offensive lineman Will Richardson Jr. (knee) is listed as questionable.
