CORTLAND FINNEGAN RUMORS
No Finnegan spreads Titans' challenge vs Johnson
Cortland Finnegan no longer patrols the secondary for Tennessee, gone for a bigger paycheck in St. Louis. That leaves the current Titans looking forward to the chance of facing - and trying to slow - Houston's Andre Johnson.

Rams will benefit from Finnegan's edge
ST. LOUIS Cortland Finnegan entered the NFL with an attitude, a competitive streak that will help the St. Louis Rams rebuild.
His reputation was formed before the trash talk on Sundays. It was formed before his aggression, the "dirty player" label among some and the fists thrown at Houston Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson in 2010.

Cortland Finnegan on way out of Tennessee?
After six seasons with the Tennessee Titans, could cornerback Cortland Finnegan's time with the Titans be coming to an end? From the sounds of it that very well could be the case. And if he hits the open market, he certainly would be an upgrade for any team in need of improvements in the secondary.
