LeGarrette Blount punches teammate; so what ...
Titans undrafted rookie running back LeGarrette Blount apologized for punching a teammate at the end of Wednesday night's practice, according to Jim Wyatt of The Tennessean.
Blount, who was suspended by Oregon for a similar incident in the Boise State game, said that the "defense pushed [him] too far.''
"Two plays in a row they pulled my helmet off intentionally, and then they did it again,'' Blount said. "They almost do it every day. They grab you by the back of the head and pull your helmet off. They know that automatically calls the play dead. They kept egging on and provoking 'til it got to a certain point. They did it to everybody.''
Blount quickly sought out coach Jeff Fisher to apologize.
"I am not disappointed whatsoever,'' Fisher said. "His past is his past. Is that the first punch you've seen at camp this year? No. OK. I am not disappointed whatsoever. I have great confidence in the young man that he has learned from his mistake and is very competitive.''
As Fisher points out, fights happen all the time during training camp.
And it wouldn't be news if it weren't Blount, as FB Ahmard Hall says: "... because it's LeGarrette Blount, everybody wants to bring up his past."
