Weeks away from return
Finley (lower leg) is reportedly still 2-3 weeks away from making his return for Western Kentucky, per Joe Londergan of Sports Illustrated.
ANALYSIS
Finley has missed each of the Hilltoppers' last four games with a lower leg injury suffered against Middle Tennessee, and it appears his road to recovery is far from over. The redshirt junior quarterback has the team's upcoming bye to rest and continue his recovery before Western Kentucky's next game against Kennesaw State the following Wednesday, but based on estimates the following game against New Mexico State is a more likely return date. Finley threw for 460 yards, one touchdown and a pair of interceptions through the team's first three games this season.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
The Bo Nix Experiment has mercifully come to an end for the Tigers. Finley has the inside track at the starting job, as he replaced the incumbent Nix during the final three games of the season, including the Birmingham Bowl. Finley was not particularly impressive, though perhaps an additional offseason with the program after transferring from LSU the previous year will provide him with some continuity. Finley’s accuracy has been suspect during his brief collegiate career, something that also plagued Nix, so it will be interesting to see how short of a leash coach Bryan Harsin gives Finley if he is indeed named the starter. Finley completed just 54.7-percent of his throws for the Tigers last season. Transfers Zach Calzada and Robby Ashford will also push Finley for the top spot.
