Todd France has some hard days of work ahead of him.
The agent who represents Denver Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib and Tennessee Titans wide receiver Harry Douglas now is at the center of his clients’ feud, which erupted Sunday during the Titans’ 13-10 win over the Broncos in NFL Week 14.
Douglas and Talib tussled in the first half just after the former blocked Denver’s Chris Harris at knee level, and the latter delivered some payback on the very next play. The Talib-Douglas altercation sparked a near brawl between the teams before cooler heads prevailed … if only for a while.
Talib blasted Douglas after the game, threatening to fight him the next time he sees him in France’s office in Atlanta.
For what it’s worth, Douglas is defending himself (with words).
“I’m a tough player,” Douglas told reporters after the game, per Sports Illustrated. “I’m not a dirty player no matter what anybody says.”
Perhaps France can organize a summit between Talib and Douglas in order to stop this before things spiral out of control.
But the meeting shouldn’t take place in France’s office. That much is clear.
