Lewan explained afterward that he took exception to Norman's actions during the game.
"I was pissed - he was trying to hurt (Titans running back) Derrick Henry during that four-minute (drive). That's not the way football is supposed to be played, man. It's not our fault you're not relevant anymore," Lewan said, according to ESPN's Turron Davenport.
"(Norman) tackled him, and it was like a temper tantrum. I was trying to get Derrick up, and he's throwing a hissy-fit, going low at him and stuff like that."
Norman declined to comment after the game.
