NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Taylor Lewan is coming off consecutive Pro Bowls and he’s on the verge of a big contract.
Keith Carter is in his second year as an NFL position coach, his first with the Titans offensive line.
Lewan tried to be funny during the offensive line period at the first practice of camp, and Carter did not like it.
A very odd moment at @titans practice between Taylor Lewan and the OL coach who was not happy with his effort. Language from both dictate this was NOT a playful moment, IMO. pic.twitter.com/dqHFAC0ARX

That’s not a federal issue, but it does illustrate how a new coach trying to establish himself and an established star can butt heads. Lewan appeared to be trying to talk to Carter after the play but Carter was moving on.
It was big enough deal for them that they talked one-on-one for roughly 30 minutes after practice ended.

I got a minute with Lewan on it and he said things are "straight."
