Ole Miss starting left tackle Laremy Tunsil will sit out a second straight game due to an ongoing NCAA investigation, according to ESPN’s Edward Aschoff.

Tunsil sat out the Rebels’ season-opening 76–3 victory over UT Martin last weekend for what the school called a “precautionary measure.”

The NCAA is investigating whether or not Tunsil made improper contact with agents.
