Former Division II football star missing after Michigan fishing trip
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Law enforcement officials say a former Division II national champion quarterback who went missing during a fishing trip in Michigan may have become nervous and ran into the woods.
Lake County Sheriff Robert Hilts said Tuesday that family members of Cullen Finnerty told investigators the ex-Grand Valley State player "was nervous about something and it was suspected that he might be having some kind of a mental episode."
Finnerty was reported missing Sunday night after he went fishing near Baldwin, about 65 miles north of Grand Rapids.

The 30-year-old led Grand Valley State to three Division II national titles and briefly was a member of the Baltimore Ravens.
