There is no specific timetable for Finely's return to the field, but indications are that he likely will miss at least four to six weeks, sources said.

Doctors have told Finley that he will not require surgery and that all current indications are that he should eventually be able to resume his NFL career if he so chooses.



Just seems like this is worse than people are saying.

The current diagnosis is that Finley suffered a spinal contusion located in his neck, but that it should heal and that once it does, he would be at no more risk for suffering a spine injury than any other player.



Then there's this:

The Packers are considered a conservative team when it comes to treatment of serious injuries, and the possibility remains that Green Bay might decide it is uncomfortable returning Finley to the field and instead place him on season ending injured reserve.



WHAT!? He's perfectly fine, but we feel uncomfortable, so we're going to IR him? wtf

I'm sure they are just jumping to that conclusion because of the Nick Collins situation, which was completely different but hey...that's journalism for you today!

Honestly, if he can come back and feels good about coming back, then great. However, if he feels the need to not play the rest of the year (or call it quits overall), so be it.
