The New Orleans Saints watched their primary offensive and defensive starters -- aside from the resting Drew Brees and Cameron Jordan -- play just two series Thursday night before inserting the reserves in the preseason opener at TIAA Bank Field.

At the midway point of the second quarter, when the starters were done, the Saints had played the Jacksonville Jaguars to a 10-10 draw.

The Saints and Jaguars flip flopped with their scoring methods through the early portion of the game. The Jaguars opened the game with a 79-yard touchdown drive, scoring on a 2-yard run by quarterback Blake Bortles.



The Saints responded with a 45-yard field goal by Wil Lutz to make it 7-3, but the Jaguars took a 7-point lead again when Josh Lambo hit a 49-yard field.

Then, the Saints had their long touchdown drive, going 78 yards and finishing with a 2-yard touchdown run by Mark Ingram. At the 6:08 mark in the second quarter, it was 10-10, and Saints coaches decided to insert other backups.

Ingram had seven carries for 23 yards as well as the touchdown. Fellow running back Alvin Kamara and 11 yards on three carries as well as a 7-yard reception, but he and quarterback Tom Savage failed to connect on two other targets.

No Jordan... 6 sacks (albeit not all with the starters)
