    Updating an earlier item, CB Cortland Finnegan walked out of Titans' training camp because he believes the team reneged on a promise to restructure his contract.
    Finnegan reportedly requested a new deal heading into camp, and said he wanted a trade if the Titans weren't willing to give it to him. He decided to report, however, after HC Mike Munchak, DC Jerry Gray and DBs coach Marcus Robertson all apparently implied "the team would respond positively to his request for a new contract if he reported." It would appear as if they have not, leading Finnegan to last night's decision.

    I don't think he has any leverage after his performance last season.

    I think he comes back in 5 days with his tail betwen his legs.

    So the Titans lie to their players. Again. Why would anyone want to play for them at this point?

    He doesn't deserve more money though. The point still stands. Trade him.

    My assumption is he waited until the team was officially under the cap which I think was yesterday. He then went to MR for an extension and didn't like what he heard, took his ball and went home...

    Pure assumption obviously but it's a very odd situation indeed.

    I was against Finny all the way on this, but if the Titans made a promise to give him a new deal if he reported and it was a lie it's hard to blame Finny for being ticked off.
