Nashville, TN — Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher took offense to claims by the San Diego Chargers that he ordered a “hit” on star linebacker Shawne Merriman during Sunday’s game.

Merriman suffered a sprained ligament in his left knee against the Titans and will miss this Sunday’s game against the Lions. Merriman said teammates told him Fisher ordered a hit on him for knocking quarterback Vince Young out of the game in the second quarter.

Several Chargers said Titans center Kevin Mawae and another player were involved in the play with intentions of hurting Merriman.
