Jim Wyatt, of The Tennessean, reports Tennessee Titans head coach Jeff Fisher said he is not upset with QB Vince Young for speaking out because he knows backups want to play.

Wed, 03 Jun 2009 17:49:41 -0700

Paul Kuharsky, of ESPN.com, reports Tennessee Titans head coach Jeff Fisher downplayed QB Vince Young's recent comment during an interview on The Zone in Nashville. Young recently said that he would like to play elsewhere if he can't take back the starting job. Fisher said, "I didn't bat an eye at it, when I saw Vince today we didn't bring it up. He was in the weight room working out, had a great workout." Fisher added, "He's been here just about every day and he's having a great offseason. That's really the only thing that's important to me. I would expect everyone on our football team to want to start. You need that attitude. I think he may have been led on a little bit in the interview, but I'm not paying attention to it, he knows there is no potential for us to move him and I am not backing down off of what I said at the end of that ball game or the Monday or Tuesday after Jacksonville."

If he didn't have a desire to stay there, he wouldn't be doing any of that."
