Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a hamstring injury, the team announced.

The second-year back has been limited to just two starts this season. He left the Week 4 game against the New York Jets after aggravating the injury following a two-week absence.

He has rushed for 71 yards and no touchdowns on 20 attempts while adding four receptions for 19 yards.

T.J. Yeldon leads the Jaguars' rushing attack with 205 yards and one touchdown on 49 attempts. Quarterback Blake Bortles is the team's second-leading rusher with 132 yards.

Cornerback D.J. Hayden has also been ruled out for the Week 5 matchup due to a toe injury.
