JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - Injured Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew won't discuss
his status for the season opener against Indianapolis. He did say
Monday he was angry when the hit happened.
Jones-Drew bruised his right shin in Jacksonville's final

five-year, $30.95 million contract in April and is expected to be
