    New Jaguars owner Shad Khan's background might be in automobile parts manufacturing, but he already seems quite comfortable when it comes to dealing with his football-playing employees. Running back Maurice Jones-Drew, the Jags' only offensive weapon last season (as evidenced by his league rushing title), has made it clear since the spring that he wants a new deal. He's currently a holdout, having missed minicamps, OTAs, and now training camp and two preseason games. Meanwhile, Khan hasn't blinked. Sources tell CBSSports.com's Mike Freeman that the Jaguars aren't looking to trade MJD right now despite an ESPN report that the running back is open to the idea following recent comments from the owner.
