read that they removed his name-plate from his locker.
I once heard of an infectious disease doctor named Dr. Menkes (pronounced men-kiss).
I think it's interesting that we are full bore into training camp and Finley doesn't seem to be getting even a nibble at an offer.
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.

Of course there is a good chance nobody is nibbling because of his injury. NE, who need TEs, passed.
His contract demands are too steep. He wont be getting much guaranteed due to his injury history and specifically his bad one last year. I think the insurance article that came out recently is mostly conjecture.
