White, Nickey spark player brawl during Titans' practice


By JIM WYATT
Staff Writer

CLARKSVILLE – A brawl broke out during Titans’ practice Thursday morning after running back LenDale White spit on safety Donnie Nickey.

Nickey and White collided at the end of a play, and after they were separated, Nickey accused White of spitting on him. Several other defensive players stood up for Nickey, claiming they witnessed the same thing.

Minutes later, at the end of a play near the sideline, White was knocked out of bounds by Nickey after an incomplete pass. White elbowed safety Vincent Fuller, and several other defensive players jumped in, including Nickey again.

Titans Coach Jeff Fisher sounded off to the players, and accused Nickey of a "cheap shot."

At the end of practice, Fisher called the entire team to the middle of the field, and among other things told the players to leave the incident on the field.

Nickey and White declined comment.

if I was Nickey I would have spit on Fisher and ask him how did he like that then since its ok for me to get it

I just saw a video of the events on ESPNEWS. It is clear from the video that Nickey is not the only one going after White, underscoring the article's point that several other players witnessed the spitting.

As for Fisher, his comments are ridiculous. You'd think that a coach would have enough of a clue to figure out what actually happened before he makes a misinformed statement that one of his own players was guilty of a cheap shot. No wonder his team has been a non-factor for the past few years.

Don't worry, haven't you guys read hornfans lately? Vince, Bo Scaife and Arhmad Hall will have both LenDale and Donnie at peace with each other in no time. Its a nonissue with the leadership that those Texas Exes bring to the squad. :!

Coach Fisher apparently apologized to Nickey after he found out what happened, according to what I heard on ESPiN earlier...
