Source: Maurice Jones-Drew angry with Jaguars

Maurice Jones-Drew wants a new contract. It's unlikely he'll get one. Thus the standoff begins.

It won't last long. Jones-Drew, maybe the best back in football, will likely show up sooner than later. I think. But a source close to the running back stated that Jones-Drew is angry with the team for not rewarding him with a new deal.

This is not a shock. Of course he's angry. But I'm getting the feeling Jones-Drew may be willing to push the envelope a bit in terms of when he shows up.

He won't hold a portion of the regular season (at least I don't think he will) but there's no question, a source close to the back says, he's considering testing the will of Jaguarsleadership.

That's a battle he can't win and Jones-Drew knows this and he'll likely come to his senses.

But this could get highly interesting.
