From Boston Globe NFL/Patriots writer Ben Volin on Twitter:

I'm told that TE Jermichael Finley, still not medically cleared, has drawn interest from the Jets, Chiefs, Seahawks, Giants and Steelers

Lotta different teams interested, so I'm starting this one in the NFL Nation, but it's possible we hear more about this as it pertains to the Super Bowl Champion Seattle Seahawks soon.

Possibly just look-see since he said he was interested in coming here if he wasn't resigned in GB.

I hope not. Brick hands and a peanut-sized brain protected by an egg shell skull.

Pass.

Dropped. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Uhhhhhh....


That sucks.

No thanks.

Pretty much. :lol:

Isn't this like chapter 2 of this saga?

CLUNK

*INJURED*

We look at everyone, no stone unturned, doesn't mean we want them after a visit, several came and left over the last few years.

Sounds like fake news his agent is pumping into Twitterverse. Outside teams aren't even allowed to contact FAs or their agents yet, so how could he have "drawn interest" without a tampering violation? Subliminal messages?

I think he'd be a heck of a 3rd TE. There is no denying he is an athletic player who can make big plays. At Vet minimum or just over I think he'd be an improvement over what we tried to bring in when we signed Kellen Winslow.

Those hits were brutal. Can't really say injury prone because of them...

Yea, this sounds like one of them "sources" that just throws out half a dozen teams that maybe looking for TE's and see what sticks. If one of them actually sign him then they are the genius that called it first.

If you don't think that all sorts of back channel discussions are happening between agents and FOs, I don't know what to tell you. It's only tampering if you can prove it.

He is a really high risk player IMO. I'd rather keep Zack or McCoy if Zach will not agree to redo his deal

A ton of teams are interested in him. Why would you not be? Two years ago he was one of the best TE's in the league.

"Interested" doesn't mean four year contract with 20M guaranteed. "Interested" for the Hawks means "come on in on a one year prove it deal."
