Finneran survives OTAs, looks forward to camp

Brian Finneran, who's battling back from knee surgeries that have caused him to miss the last two seasons, was smiling as he walked off the field Thursday with quarterbacks coach Bill Musgrave.

He had made it to the organized team activities (OTA) finish line.

"I had to go through these whole OTAs healthy, which was my number one goal," Finneran said. "I'll just look forward to training camp now."

Few players have made it back into the league after missing two full seasons. Last season, Falcons quarterback Chris Redman achieved that feat.

"It's rare that it happens," Finneran said. "I think six guys have done it since 1994. It's tough to do."

Finneran appreciated the new coaching staff's understanding.

"If I feel like it's getting sore I can talk to those guys, they understand and I can take some plays off or something," Finneran said.

I doubt he sees much of the field, if any this year.

I'm excited for White, Robinson, Douglas and Jenkins.

On 680 the fan yesterday Brian Finneran was talking about Terry Glenn and how he'd love to switch places to get the 500,000 Terry is trying to avoid. I found it to be rather funny how Brain was coming off but it just goes to show you how much he's wanting to play.

Brain also talked about DJ Shockley and said it looks like he's going to be the odd man out. Said he hope he just continues to watch film so he can take it with him to another team.
