Michael Vick's an Eagle

Today it was officially announced that former Atlanta Falcons' QB, Michael Vick, who hasn't played a game in the NFL since 2006, has signed a two-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles. It's being reported that in the first year of his contract Vick will receive $1.6 million with an option of $5.2 million for the second year. Tomorrow the Eagles will publicly hold a press conference to announce the signing of Michael Vick. On Sunday, Michael Vick interview on "60 Minutes" will air.



I wonder if McNabb is worried about his job as starting QB.

He's Back?

Michael Vick has been given a conditional reinstatement by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Earlier this week, Goodell released a statement in which he urged Vick to take full advantage of the resources that are available to him and for him to dedicate himself to rebuilding his life and career in the NFL. He went on to send Vick his support if he can accomplish these conditions. It is believed that Goodell may fully reinstate Michael Vick by Week 6 (Oct.18-19).

It'll be interesting to see who will pick Vick up if any at all. My best guess would have to be Detroit. Last season the Lions went 0-16, making them the first team in NFL history to do so, could use any help they can get.
