Tennessee Titans star defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons had a testy exchange with a radio host during the team’s practice session on Tuesday.
Titans radio host Buck Reising and his co-host, host Lucas Panzica, set up shop and did a live radio from team practice today. As they were preparing to interview cornerback Roger McCreary, Jeffery Simmons came over and exchanged some words with Reising.
The video starts with Reising asking Simmons if he’d like to sit down and converse. As the former tries to begin his interview with McCreary, an angry Simmons comes over and says, “You do a lot of talking on social media…p***y!”
As Reisen tries to proceed with the McCreary interview, Simmons continues the verbal exchange. Finally, Reisen issues one last chance for them to have a conversation before moving on to talk to McCreary.
“Jeff, if you want to sit down and talk about this, we can talk about this,” Reisen said. “I’m talking to you right here. Jeff, we tried to talk to you last week. I’m being rude to Roger. We’ll deal with you later.”

At one part of Tuesday’s broadcast, Reising was critical of Simmons, telling the Titans superstar to “control yourself.” Simmons apparently had a physical altercation with rookie offensive lineman J.C. Latham, leading to a brawl that had to be broken up.
First-year head coach Brian Callahan had to cuss out the players over the brawl, Reising and Panzica added. Callahan was named the new head coach following a five-year run as the Cincinnati Bengals’ offensive coordinator.
Jeffery Simmons & Titans Begin A New Era
Not only did the Titans bring in a new coaching staff after the surprise firing of head coach Mike Vrabel, but they also bid farewell to star running back Derrick Henry, former starting QB Ryan Tannehill and underrated pass rusher Denico Autry.
The Titans enter year one of a rebuild, with second-year QB Will Levis the undisputed starter behind center. The 2023 second-round pick will try to build off a stellar rookie year with a new supporting cast featuring Calvin Ridley, Tyler Boyd and Tony Pollard.
Tennessee will begin its 2024 season with a road contest against the Caleb Williams-led Chicago Bears on Sept. 8.
