The fight occurred after Douglas cut blocked Broncos cornerback Chris Harris Jr. late in the second quarter. Harris had to leave the field but returned before halftime and played the entire second half.
Following the next play, Talib and Douglas got into a scuffle on the Titans’ sideline, and players and officials came over to break it up. The veteran cornerback was flagged for a personal foul.
Harris said he never had a player try to end his career. “He tried to end my career with a hit like that. ... [The officials] didn’t call it, but hopefully the league can take a look at that.”
After the game, Talib called Douglas a “sorry player.” The veteran cornerback also said, “The next time I see him in Atlanta I’m going to beat his ass.”
Talib has racked up 30 tackles and three interceptions so far this season.
At 8-5, the Broncos are currently in third place in the AFC West. They still have a chance to clinch a Wild Card spot. Denver has a Week 15 matchup against the New England Patriots.
