Dirty hit on Chris Harris Jr. prompts brawl between Broncos, Titans image

Aqib Talib was penalized Sunday once again for getting into a fight, this time against the Titans after a cheap shot from Tennessee receiver Harry Douglas on Denver corner Chris Harris Jr.

But Talib wasn't the aggressor — he simply retaliated after the hit that left Harris on the ground holding his knee.

The Titans, driving into Broncos territory late in the second quarter, got an extra 15 yards thanks to Talib, who saw Douglas go after Harris' knee — even though both players were far removed from the play.

Harris had to leave the field but eventually made it back.

The Titans got a fresh set of downs on the play and ended their drive with a field goal to go up 13-0.

UPDATE: Talib is mad.
