Ex-Titans CB Cortland Finnegan continues to be fearless off the football field

As impressive as former Tennessee Titans cornerback, Cortland Finnegan was on the football field, he’s mostly remembered for his feisty attitude and fearless approach to everything he did.

After making a name for himself in the NFL as a seventh-round pick out of Samford, Finnegan seemingly always played with a chip on his shoulder. The Pro-Bowl corner didn’t back down from anybody regardless of how big or strong they were (see: the infamous Andre Johnson clip).

That’s why it’s hardly a surprise to see Finnegan still being fearless in other facets of his life now that football is in the rearview mirror.

This became rather evident after Tennessee’s former stud defender chose to do a tandem parachute jump with the U.S. Army Golden Knights on Wednesday.

According to Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com, the jump was led by Sgt. 1st Class Ryan Reis and was held at Addington Field in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.

One thing is for certain, there aren’t too many things (or people) that Finnegan will back down from no matter how daunting they appear.
