Latest Fantasy Rumors
Calls it quits
Finney retired from the NFL on Tuesday for medical reasons, Kellis Robinett of the Kansas City Star reports.
ANALYSIS
Finney played six seasons in the NFL, five of which came with the Steelers. He primarily filled a depth role at center while backing up Maurkice Pouncey. Finney dealt with a serious back injury for much of the 2021 campaign, and that appears to be the catalyst for his decision to walk away from the game at the age of 30.
