The Pittsburgh Penguins will be without defenseman Kris Letang on Sunday when they take on the Winnipeg Jets.

The 28-year-old will sit for precautionary reasons after not feeling great in the morning, according to head coach Mike Sullivan.

Letang returned to the lineup Saturday against the Minnesota Wild after being sidelined since Dec. 9. The crafty blue-liner was briefly injured after taking a headshot from forward Jarret Stoll.

However, he did finish the game, notching two assists in his return.
