Dennis Northcutt could have complained. He could have ripped into the Jacksonville Jaguars for signing free agent receiver Jerry Porter to a six-year, $30 million contract in March. He could have vilified receiver Matt Jones for his arrest on a felony drug charge in July. He could have mocked coaches for keeping him on the sideline when the offense struggled to establish a big-play passing game.

The Jacksonville Jaguars will play the rest of the season without their leading receiver.

With his salary going up and his playing time going down, running back Fred Taylor thinks his Jaguars career maybe nearing an end.

Former 1st round draft pick Troy Williamson never really got along with coach Brad Childress in Minnesota. His feelings have not changed since leaving there, either.

Linebacker Mike Peterson assumed his usual spot in the middle of Jacksonville's defense on Wednesday. He's unsure how long he will remain there.
