Maurice Jones-Drew retires today as a Jacksonville Jaguars player

Maurice Jones-Drew, the Jaguars’ career record-holder in touchdowns, is back in Jacksonville, signing a one-day contract to retire as a member of the franchise.

Jones-Drew played his first eight NFL seasons for the Jaguars – the running back was named to three Pro Bowls – before leaving as a free agent last year for the Oakland Raiders.

He announced his retirement last month.

Jones-Drew rushed 1,847 times for 8,167 yards, totals that rank 46th and 45th, respectively, in league history.
