Somebody signed at the (Jones-Drew) household we sent it to. Everybody is aware of when it starts, when they have to be here.’’ Mularkey said. If Jones-Drew holds out from camp he’ll could end up being fined daily by the Jaguars.  If they choose to fine him, his holdout likely won’t last very long.
