Report: 2 Titans file countersuit after being accused of assault

Two Tennessee Titans players who allegedly assaulted a man outside a Nashville bar on the night of the NFL draft have reportedly filed a countersuit against their accuser, according to WKRN.

Wideout Tajae Sharpe and guard Sebastian Tretola were accused of attacking a man named Dante Satterfield after the latter allegedly commented that Titans 2017 first-round pick Corey Davis would cut into Sharpe's playing time.

Satterfield filed a lawsuit in May and then refiled in June, seeking a jury trial and $500,000 in damages. He claimed he suffered broken bones in his face, a concussion, and other injuries.

Now, Sharpe and Tretola have countersued, alleging a drunk Satterfield repeatedly approached them inside the bar and followed them outside, threatening them and claiming to be a gang member.

Sharpe admits to punching Satterfield, but claims it was in self-defense.

Neither Titans player has been charged with a crime in the case.
