Jermichael Finley – Green Bay Packers

In the third round of the 2008 NFL Draft, Finley was drafted by the Green Bay Packers and the years that followed were pretty extraordinary. When he started the 2011 season, he started off strong, catching three touchdowns and he also finished 3rd among tight ends in receiving touchdowns and 12th in terms of yards. So in 2012, Finley was set to just over $5 million and about $8 million in 2013. Then during week 7 of the 2013 season against the Browns, Finley sustained a bruised spinal cord but it wasn’t until 2015 that he officially retired.

During Boselli’s freshman year at college, he had minor shoulder surgery and all throughout the pros, he tried to rehab his shoulder but nothing helped. In 2001, he finally retired after he was unable to play due to constant shoulder injuries.
