    Peter King of SI.com reports that he does not see the Jacksonville Jaguars buckling to the salary demands of star running back Maurice Jones-Drew. "Listening to the coaches and locals talk about backup back Rashad Jennings, a fourth-year man from Liberty, you'd think he was the starter and Jones-Drew the backup. Jones-Drew's getting older, and he doesn't hit the holes like he used to, etc. Well, the man did win the rushing title by two-and-a-half football fields last year. And he is only 27. But the Jaguars give off the strong impression that if Jones-Drew won't play for at least one of the last two years on his contract (he has salaries of $4.5 million and $4.95 million left), they're going to let him sit and let Jennings carry the majority of the rushing load." It even seems possible that we have seen the last of Jones-Drew in a Jags uniform.

    If that is the case, then MJD will ask to be traded or they will cut him.
