Maybe his insurance policy stipulates 57 confirmations of the injury.

Regardless of medical clearance, I don't think Finley will be a Packer or play in the NFL for that matter.
He had the same problem as Nick Collins and the Packers let Collins go, even though he was "Medically Cleared." No other team signed Collins - a player at the height of his career before the injury.
Finley is done, imo.

" The Seahawks and Dolphins have flirted with Finley, while the Jets, Chiefs, Giants, and Steelers have all been rumored to have interest.
The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported in late March that Finley was "at least two months" and "maybe several months more" from signing a contract. Apr 27 - 2:13 PM " Fr. LINK above

MM not closing the door on Finley:
Maybe MM is just choosing not to talk negatively about a guy in a tough situation, but he has always liked Finley, despite the headaches he sometimes causes."In my mind, he's a Green Bay Packer, hopefully," coach Mike McCarthy said on SiriusXM NFL Radio on Wednesday. "He's going through a tough medical situation that we all recognize is a serious injury. My understanding is he's doing everything and beyond to get himself ready, and we'll continue to watch that."

It seems to me that.... MM's suffering a delusion of certain proportions.
JerMichael Finley has shown far too much interest in other NFL teams for MM to express this man love for him. Where's MM's pride?
If I was MM's advisor I wouldn't recommend commentary on JerMichael Finley and his status as a possible NFL TE.

Disagree.
Just because Finley is looking for another team does not negate that the Packers should not keep an eye on his progress. The Packers drafted him and gave him every chance to succeed, why should they throw all that time, effort and money out the window and treat him as some pariah? MM showed no "man love" for him, just commented that he would like to keep him assuming his neck heals. Why shut the door on a talented player? Yes, he's hurt, but what would it say about MM if he just said "hit the bricks"? How would other players around the league take it where the head coach seemingly doesn't care about his players?
I thought he handled it just fine.

The way some of you ram it in together can be counted on.
Sorry Lads but common sense rules the day:
Get out the chains or see this situation for what it is; see TE JerMichael Finley for what /who he is and "his double speak".
Visits to other NFL teams for a new contract and extending his NFL playing career and ** wanting to retire a Green Bay Packer** . Which is it JerMichael?
Why not simply use some common sense after sound analysis.
** The latter (or retirement as a Green Bay Packer) is obtainable as long as he simply faces the facts of his injury and retires now. I believe that after all the blah blah blah that it's going to most reasonably end right there.
Let's exmine it closer. Being silly isn't ever an incurable thing.
A) Jermichael Finley has shown more interest in the Seattle Seahawk and New York GIANTS organizations than a return to Green Bay where he has said a return means he want the same money he got pre-injury. See Ted Thompson and his needs to re-sign at least one of WR's Jordy Nelson and/or Randall Cobb....2015 UFA"s and star Green Bay Packer offensive weapons that offer superior returns than any injury afflicted JerMichael Finley.
B) JerMichael Finleys injury is similar to former star Safety Nick Collins and what was the Green Bay Packers response to that? Is a man like TT (the Green Bay Packers) going to make a decision about one star player (Nick Collins) and where the same decision is prudent RE: JerMichael Finley. Do an about turn? NO ! That's not logical nor likely.
Not that Ted Thompson can ever be accused of certain consistency. Take his latest draft and the claim he always drafts BPA. That went has gone out the door like used bath water after the 2014 draft. That TT is such a kidder.
C) Mike McCarthy is a football coach. MM is being over emotional and not using managerial skills required of an NFL GM. Ted Thompson won't be bringing JerMichael Finley back because Mike McCarthy can't use common sense and let go of this damaged TE.
D) Focusing on the personal and the man himself. JerMichael Finley isn't the brightest bulb on the tree. To allow JerMichael Finley to come back (again ... see Nick Collins) and with that decision. Put him at high risk that one hit could risk much more than his football life. Isn't going to happen.
It's a certain bye bye to TE JerMichael Finley and TE play in Green Bay.
Take that to the bank.

Both articles mention nothing about money. Finley's interest in the Giants is due to McAdoo (a father figure), based on one quote. The Seattle rumor cites unsubstantiated rumors. No evidence supporting anything having to do with how much money Finley wants. Try again.
P.S. Madtown's rules are pretty simple - not posting of personal information.

When did money become the specific of this argument? Get real please. Ohh forget that suggestion. Your "way past" out to lunch.
I never imagined a bigger ASSHOLE could exist such as you. That's obviously your life's greatest endeavour to remain supreme in that category.
What a joke you are. Your so delisciously idiotic to me.
Do you in your narcissistic manner actually imagine that I answer to you here?
Your seriously deluded if you do.
Your like a fly.........that's right.

No ASSHOLE you made the edit. Your really weak mraynrand.... not worthy. Very difficult to take seriously. You've been informed of that plenty of times by others.

It's time for you to take a wee rest "t" iger.
bye bye...your boring me.
Don't act insane...Your on IGNORE.
