    Wonder if Finley is going to use the possibility of his $10M insurance policy going away as incentive to push hard for an NFL team to sign him. He and his agent didn't help their cases by coming out and saying he was medically cleared to play.

    Wow, tough spot to be in. As a player, you want to tell clubs you are healthy enough to play, but you don't want the unintended consequence of your confidence/medical clearance to be that you potentially lose out on an insurance settlement that would potentially pay you more than you are likely to make, since any team, including the Packers are likely going to have him do a 1 year "prove it" deal for far less than 10 mil.
