Tennessee Titans wide receiver Harry Douglas tossed a cheap shot on Denver Broncos defensive back Chris Harris Jr in the second quarter of Sunday’s game in Nashville. Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib did not like seeing his teammate take the hit, and went after Douglas the following play, leading to a brawl between the two teams.
After the game, Talib wasn’t done showing his anger over the cheap shot on his teammate, and went off to the media about Douglas:
“He’s got the same agent as me, so when I see his ass in Atlanta, I’m going to beat his ass.”

Talib on Douglas: “It was a dirty play by a sorry player. He didn’t do nothing coming into this game. He didn’t catch no passes. …

As you’d imagine, Harris was quite unhappy about taking the hit, and told the media he’s “never had a guy try to end my career like that”:

Douglas may want to watch his back for a while… especially when he goes to visit his agent in Atlanta.
