CANTON, Ohio (AP) – The bold-faced names will wear baseball caps and not helmets on Sunday night during the annual Hall of Fame game.

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson won’t play following his return from a lengthy suspension that ended his 2014 season. Pittsburgh Steelers stars Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown also get the night off while the coaching staffs take a long look at the reserves.

Pittsburgh will give third-year quarterback Landry Jones plenty of snaps as he tries to hold on to the No. 3 spot behind Roethlisberger. Jones is being challenged by former Clemson star Tajh Boyd.

Former Steeler Mike Wallace will make his debut for the Vikings after being acquired in an offseason trade from Miami.
