Urban Meyer still in Jacksonville Jaguars' plans despite building tension, sources say

As tension builds amid the frustration of a 2-10 season, Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shad Khan plans to stay the course with coach Urban Meyer, sources told ESPN on Saturday.

Meyer again has come under scrutiny, with sources confirming an NFL Network report on Saturday that Jaguars wide receiver Marvin Jones recently had to be convinced to return to the team facility after leaving due to Meyer's vocal criticisms of the wide receiver corps.

Jones, who stayed outside the team facility before eventually walking back in, also had a heated exchange with Meyer at practice after returning, sources confirmed to ESPN.
