**** Jauron apparently has a signed contract extension in hand, but what the Buffalo Bills coach really needs is for ownership to tell him he still has the job.
Whether Jauron will remain coach will be decided Wednesday, team owner Ralph C. Wilson Jr. told the Buffalo News.
According to the newspaper, Wilson had a meeting Monday in Detroit with chief operating officer Russ Brandon, vice president of college scouting Tom Modrak, and team treasurer Jeff Littmann.
"We're going to have a meeting [Tuesday] and the next day, and then you'll have your answer," Wilson told the News.
The Bills, after a 4-0 start to the season, lost eight of their final 10 games to post a third consecutive 7-9 record under Jauron.
Several media outlets, including ESPN, reported this fall that Jauron and the Bills had reached agreement on a three-year extension. In December, ESPN and The NFL Network reported that the coach had signed the deal, which runs through the 2011 season.
At the time the deal was agreed upon, the Bills were 5-2 and in contention in the AFC East.
Wilson would not comment on the reports of Jauron's extension when asked by the News on Monday.
