JACKSONVILLE, Fla. —
The Jaguars still need to sell about 6,000 tickets to avoid a blackout for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts where Wayne and Delores Weaver will be honored for their 18 years of service.
"We want people here. We're not just doing this to get it on TV. We're doing this to pay tribute to some worthy causes," says Jaguars VP of Ticket Sales and Marketing Mackey Weaver.
The Jags will have a banner set up in the south endzone before the game for fans to sign. It will be presented to the Weavers during halftime along with gifts from the Jaguars organization.
Weaver says honoring Maurice Jones-Drew's accomplishments is another big reason to fill the stands Sunday. Jones-Drew leads Philadelphia Eagles RB LeSean McCoy by 128 yards for the NFL rushing title. He could also break Fred Taylor's single season rushing record with 136 yards on the ground, and is just one touchdown away from breaking Taylor's career touchdown record as a Jaguar.
Weaver says the team will ask for the extension Thursday.
