Auburn QB T.J. Finley Arrested on Charge of Attempting to Elude Police

T.J. Finley was charged with trying to flee police in Alabama.

He was taken into custody at the Lee County Detention Facility after an interaction with the auburn police department.

As of Thursday afternoon, additional details weren't available, and the university hadn't released an official statement about the situation.

He originally committed to LSU and started five games for the team in 2020.

In that season, he completed 57.1 percent of his passes for 934 yards, five touchdown and five turnovers.

He started three of the nine games he played last season after transferring from LSU. He threw for 825 yards with six touchdown and one pick, despite completing just 54.7% of his passes.

The 6'7" signal-caller from Ponchatoula High School was ranked 499th among all players and 19th among pro style quarterbacks in the 2020 class.

On Tuesday, he became the first college football player to sign a name, image and likeness deal with Amazon.

According to Tom Green of Al.com, Finley will sell items such as clothing, tote bags, phone cases and pop sockets.

Bryan Harsin has yet to name a starter for the 2022.

The competition for the No. 1 quarterback job is wide open with a number of players vying for it.
