On Thursday, the Tennessee Titans defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch was informed by the NFL that he will have to pay a fine of $5,000 for hit on Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning.
But it seemed Vanden Bosch and the Titans would like to refuse to accept the punishment. As to what happened in Sunday's 31-9 loss to the Colts, Titans Coach Jeff Fisher, co-chairman of the competition committee said earlier this week that rule states roughing the passer should not be called if a player is blocked into a quarterback.
And the defensive end said Thursday that he knows what the rule is on hot hitting quarterback arround the knees. But the actual situation was that he was blocked and was going down during Sunday night's, therefore he had to grab Manning's legs to keep balance, indicating that it is not fair to fine him for what he did to the quarterback wearing opponent team's NFL jersey.
