The Jacksonville Jaguars will be without two starters for the rest of the preseason.

Right tackle Eben Britton and tight end Zach Miller will miss at least two weeks.

Britton, who missed the final nine games last season because of a shoulder injury, hurt his back two weeks ago. Coach Jack Del Rio says Britton had a procedure in North Carolina and will be ''out a little while.'' Del Rio says Britton could be available for the Sept. 11 season opener.

Miller, who missed parts of the last two preseasons, has a sprained right knee but could return for the opener.

Del Rio says linebacker Clint Session and running back Rashad Jennings, both of whom sustained concussions at New England, will be held out of Friday's preseason game against Atlanta.
