Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shad Khan is reportedly willing to give star cornerback Jalen Ramsey a new contract amid a trade request.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network noted Friday that Khan "loves" Ramsey, though it's unclear if the relationship between the player and team can be salvaged:

Ramsey requested a trade following a Week 2 loss to the Houston Texans, a game in which the defensive back had a heated sideline exchange with head coach Doug Marrone. Per Rapoport, though, the trade request "is not about Marrone."

The two-time Pro Bowler shared some insight Thursday via the 17 Weeks podcast:

Rapoport added that Ramsey's issue is with executive vice president of football operations Tom Coughlin.

The fifth overall pick in 2016, Ramsey has two years and $17.3 million remaining on his rookie contract. Of note, three of the four players selected ahead of him (Jared Goff, Carson Wentz and Ezekiel Elliott) have already inked extensions, with Los Angeles Chargers defensive lineman Joey Bosa (No. 3 overall) the lone exception.

After having his name pop up in the rumor mill prior to the 2018 NFL trade deadline, Ramsey expressed in December, per ESPN's Michael DiRocco, his desire to hold extension talks with the Jaguars during the offseason. The Florida State product let it be known in June that he was not interested in taking a hometown discount.

He made that sentiment even clearer by showing up to training camp in a Brinks truck:

Of note, Xavien Howard of the Miami Dolphins is the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL in terms of total value ($75.25 million) and average annual value ($15.05 million), per Over The Cap.

Although Ramsey had hoped to get a new deal done over the summer, he revealed in June that the team had informed him he would not be receiving an extension this year. But based on Rapoport's latest report, the Jaguars—or at least Khan—may be willing to talk money.

According to ESPN's Josina Anderson, a number of teams have made "substantive inquiries" about Ramsey this week. The MMQB's Albert Breer previously reported the Jaguars are seeking two first-round picks in a return package.
