Mike Sims-WalkerJacksonville has suspended Mike Sims-Walker, the team's leading wide receiver, for Sunday's game at Seattle for an unspecified violation of team rules, Michael C. Wright reported on Twitter.

Sims-Walker, a second-year player out of Central Florida, has been a surprise star through four weeks -- he's made 19 catches for 278 yards and three touchdowns, and has developed into one of the Jaguars' most consistent offensive threats.

Rookie Mike Thomas will start in Sims-Walker's place.

After starting the season 0-2, Jacksonville has bounced back with a pair of wins -- at Houston and against Tennessee -- to pull back into the playoff race in the AFC. Sims-Walker caught nine passes for 91 yards and two touchdowns against the Titans.
