CBSSports.com reports Jacksonville Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew (leg) suffered a leg contusion during the team's preseason game Thursday, Sept. 3, and he is questionable to return.

It doesn't sound like anything serious and I'm sure MJD owners are glad he got some valuable pre-season Game 4 experience. :)

Jack Del Rio would have gotten an entire fan bases foot up his ass had MJD came up hurt in a junk game.

I can't understand why he was in the game... sometimes people in the NFL do stuff that defies explanation.

Damnit to hell, this sucks. Thats it, Del Rio needs to go. If he doesn't turn that team around this year, i have a feeling the city of Jax and the Weavers will pack his bags for him and drive him to the state line and drop him off.

xrays were negative on what has been described as a bruised lower right leg. MRI is scheduled for today. Del Rio says he should be a go.

Well thats good news. Now he's got just over a week to get the soreness out of the bruise.

They said that Del Rio gave a pre-game speech about not wanting to be the first team in their franchise history to go 0-4 in the preseason. That's why he played his starters and played them a good ways into the first half.
Don't shoot the messanger. It's dumb, but that was Del Rio's thinking.

Oh yeah, with that thinking , he needs to go. If a coach is willing to sacrifice players in a meaningless game chancing a season ending injury to a starter that could effect the whole up coming season just because he didn't want a 0-4 record in a bunch of worthless games, he needs to be fired and have his bags packed.

Like I said, don't shoot the messanger. Del Rio's never been the sharpest tool in the shed.
