Report: Vick Signs with Bird Team


PHILADELPHIA, PA -- Vick's agent Joel Segal confirmed reports Thursday afternoon that Michael Vick has agreed to terms on a 1-year deal with bird franchise, the Philadelphia Eagles.

The decision came long after the Falcons made it clear that they were going to move in a different direction and after it had become apparent that the Baltimore Ravens, Arizona Cardinals, and Seattle Seahawks were not interested in signing Vick.

Michael Vick was conditionally reinstated to the NFL, and will be reconsidered for full reinstatement by Week 6. The quarterback, formerly of the Atlanta Falcons, has stated that he would be more than willing to accept a bench role for any bird team in the NFL.

After signing with the Eagles, jailbird Vick tweeted, "I hope to contribute, that's all. I will do what is best for the nest."

Vick will fly into Philadelphia tomorrow to meet with head coach Andy Reid.
