because of a hand injury. Watt, Wilfork and Joseph, however, didn't play in the previous two preseason games either.

O'Brien was asked on Friday about playing time for his starters, and he said it would be "very, very similar to the first two games". He also added that there would likely be a few omissions.

"I'm not sure that every single person will play in the game, but a number of guys will get an opportunity to play in the game," O'Brien said.

Watt played sparingly in a pair of 2014 preseason games.
