The Jacksonville Jaguars ruled out running back Chris Ivory and wide receiver Allen Hurns for Sunday’s home game against the Denver Broncos.

Both Ivory and Hurns have been dealing with hamstring injuries and missed practice all week.

Ivory was injured during the Jaguars’ 28-21 loss to the Buffalo Bills last Sunday. He is the Jaguars’ leading rusher with 350 yards on 93 carries and has two touchdowns in nine games.

Running back T.J. Yeldon, who is dealing with an ankle injury and missed Wednesday’s practice, is expected to start for the Jaguars (2-9) against the Broncos (7-4).

Hurns suffered a hamstring injury on his fourth-quarter touchdown catch against the Bills. He is the team’s third-leading receiver with 35 catches for 477 yards and three touchdowns.

The Jaguars also ruled out wide receiver/punt returner Rashad Greene (Achilles) and defensive end Jared Odrick (shoulder).

Tight end Julius Thomas was listed as doubtful with a back injury and likely will miss his second straight game.
