Falcons' Takk McKinley Went on Bizarre Rant About Ex-WR Brian Finneran and He Very Kindly Responded

Falcons defensive lineman Takkarist McKinley is his own man. He handles the media and himself as he sees fit. He says what's on his mind and, for the most part, is unapologetic about it.

Sometimes, though, things get a little bit bizarre. Most recently, he launched into an unprovoked rant about former Falcons wide receiver Brian Finneran.

To kick things off, he outright admitted that he had no idea who Finneran was.

We assumed Finneran had been mean to him recently, at this point, but...no, this appears to have just emerged from the recesses of McKinley's mind.

He then took it a step further, googling "best white receivers" as he searched for any trace of the former wide receiver's legacy.

No dice. His name wasn't among the first few results.

Credit to McKinley, though. He remained persistent, scouring articles that discussed who the best and worst white receivers of all time were.

Unfortunately, he came up empty once again.

Finneran responded to the rant graciously, even jokingly breathing a sigh of relief that he didn't appear on the list of the 10 worst white receivers in NFL history.

From one generation of Atlanta Falcons to another, what initially was spawned as a weird, inquisitive rant ended up as a wholesome exchange that included well-wishes from Finneran for the team's upcoming season.

Hopefully McKinely got the answers he was looking for, because if Finneran himself wasn't enough to educate him, then his deep dive into Atlanta Falcons history might be a lost cause.
