JACKSONVILLE – The Jaguars released their first 2016 unofficial depth chart on Monday.

And while the word "unofficial" must be emphasized, the first look at the '16 depth chart does reflect the Jaguars' ongoing camp battles and competitions – most notably at left offensive tackle, where Kelvin Beachum and Luke Joeckel are listed as co-starters.

The Jaguars released the unofficial depth chart in advance of Thursday's preseason opener against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Beachum, signed as an unrestricted free agent from the Pittsburgh Steelers in March, is expected to compete with Joeckel for starting left tackle, but Beachum has practiced sparingly while returning from a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Joeckel has worked at both left guard and tackle in practice, and Beachum has worked at both positions in his limited work.

The loser of the left tackle positon likely will start at left guard, though unrestricted free agent signee Mackenzy Bernadeau currently is listed as the starter there.

Two other positions also feature co-starters:

*Running back, where Chris Ivory and T.J. Yeldon are expected to share carries and snaps throughout the season. The Jaguars signed Ivory as an unrestricted free agent in the offseason to create a two-headed running back situation with Yeldon.

*Cornerback, where veteran Prince Amukamara and Jalen Ramsey are listed as co-starters opposite starter Davon House. The Jaguars signed Amukamara as an unrestricted free agent and selected Ramsey No. 5 overall in the 2016 NFL Draft. Both players have stood out in 2016 Training Camp.

Denard Robinson is listed as the third-team running back ahead of Jonas Gray, while Corey Grant is listed as the kickoff returner ahead of Nick Marshall, Robinson and Bryan Walters.

Sen'Derrick Marks is listed at both strong-side defensive end and three-technique defensive tackle, with the veteran listed as the third-team end and second-team tackle.

Rookie linebacker Myles Jack is listed at second-team middle linebacker, where has worked throughout training camp.
