"Packers coach Mike McCarthy spent a good deal of time during his season-ending press conference talking about tight end Jermichael Finley.
It could be a good indication the Packers have every intention of bringing Finley back next season.
Finley, who completed his fourth season, will become an unrestricted free agent. The Packers have three choices: they can let him go in free agency; they can sign him to a long-term contract; or they can put a franchise tag on him and ensure he stays in Green Bay for at least one more year at a higher salary."
