Titans coach Robert Saleh says he and Jaguars coach Liam Coen are good after last year's misunderstanding.
Saleh said he and Coen have spoken and there are no hard feelings. The clash came when Saleh, then the 49ers defensive coordinator, said Coen's team was good at stealing signals, which Coen took as an accusation of cheating and confronted him on the field. Sunday's game is their first time coaching against each other since then.
