Vince Young accepted his firing by the Tennessee Titans on Wednesday, but said he felt like coach Jeff Fisher never trusted him in his five-year tenure in Nashville.  The Titans informed Young that they will not bring him back next season, ending a protracted standoff between the QB and Fisher.  Young thanked team owner Bud Adams and Fisher for drafting him, but said he would leave Tennessee with regrets about his relationship with the coach.  "I didn't feel like (Jeff) trusted me," Young told The Tennessean. "In the five years I was there, I was always looking over my shoulder."  The tipping point for Young's time with the Titans may have been a Nov. 21 game in which he injured his thumb and walked out of the postgame locker room on Fisher.  He acknowledged to The Tennessean he handled the incident poorly. Fisher said after the game Young, who threw parts of his equipment into the stands that day, would not be the team's starter even if healthy and he placed the QB on IR the next day.  "People say that's immature, but that's just me," Young said of the locker-room walkout. "I didn't want to say something more than I didn't need to say so I got up out of there. Yeah, I could have handled it better. I left and ever since I just needed to pray and be to myself. That's why I've just sat back and ever since I've let everyone have their say about everything, but I know the truth."  Titans TE Bo Scaife told The Tennessean Young's outburst left a big impression. "You ain't gonna' step on the coach's toes like that in front of people," Scaife said. "It don't work like that."  The standoff between Fisher and Young may have forced Adams to choose one or the other. Young was drafted third overall in 2006 but never took command of the starting job fully.  Fisher, with the team since 1994, is the NFL's longest-tenured head coach. But Adams said the review of the coaching staff is still ongoing.  Young said he didn't feel like he was Fisher's guy during his time in Nashville.  "I put in a lot of work and my stats and my winning, it showed I had grown," he said.  "Everything was my fault. But that's over now. I wish coach Fisher and Bud Adams and all my coaches and teammates best."
