    Green Bay Packers tight end Jermichael Finley is out of the intensive care unit after sustaining a hard shot to the head from Cleveland safety Tashuan Gipson during Sunday's win.

    "I want to thank my family, friends, teammates, fans and Packer Nation for the prayers and support over the past 24 hrs," Finley said via his Twitter account late on Monday. "I'm happy to report that I have been transferred out of the intensive care unit and that I have full feeling in my arms and legs. As importantly, I was able 2 walk to & from the shower today, which was badly needed after yesterday's victory! Thank u again 4 the support, and Go Packers!"

    Finley made a 10-yard grab over the middle late in the third quarter and lowered his head as he was taken to the ground.

    DaBears22's Take: Good news for him and his family and for the Packers. No word yet on when he'll be back but he should take his time to regain his strength before even considering playing again.
