Former Green Bay Packer tight end Jermichael Finley has started to travel the country searching for work since he was cleared to play football by his surgeon. Finley has already visited the Patriots and now the Steelers and Raiders have shown interest in brining him in for a tryout.
The market for Finley seems to be heating up even after the Seattle Seahawks denied interest in the dynamic tight end. Finley was in Pittsburgh for a visit with the Steelers that doubled for a visit to his surgeon who is stationed in the steel city. The Raiders are an interesting option for Finley as he would step in and be the starter day one while being reunited with his former Packer teammate James Jones.
A player with Finley’s skill set would be a welcome addiction in Oakland as they continue to overhaul their offense. Finley would be the last piece to what would have to be considered a massively successful offseason for the Raiders.
The list of teams who aren't interested in Finley is shorter than the teams that are interested and he will likely take his time making a decision. The Miami Dolphins and New York Giants are also teams that have had increased interest in Finley. Finley had 223 receptions and 20 touchdowns in six season with the Packers and missed most of the 2013 season due to head and neck injuries.
