Report: Jermichael Finley to be released from hospital

Jermichael Finley has been told that he will be released from hospital in the next 24 hours, according to a report.

The Green Bay Packers tight end sustained a spinal contusion in his neck during the team's 31-13 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

ESPN claims that the 26-year-old is likely to leave hospital today and will miss at least four to six weeks while recovering from the injury.

Finley, who has 300 receiving yards and three touchdowns this season, confirmed on Twitter that he has been able to walk since being released from intensive care earlier this week.
