Quarterback Rank: #53
Overall: #284
Vick was reinstated to the NFL this offseason. He signed with the Eagles. Vick won't be allowed to play in a regular season game until Week 6, though. As you know, he has spent the past couple seasons in jail, so he could be a bit rusty upon returning to the field. He has a long way to go to return to a starting role in the NFL. The Eagles are likely to use him in a variety of ways on offense, getting him on the field a few times a game. | |
| Vick could get some touches, but they will be few and far between for fantasy owners. |

| The Associated Press reports a federal appeals court is backing the judge who ruled against the NFL and let Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick keep more than $16 million in roster bonuses from the Atlanta Falcons. The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Tuesday, Nov. 10, affirmed Judge David Doty's order saying Vick had already earned the bonuses before his dogfighting conviction, so the money wasn't subject to forfeiture. After Doty ruled in the Vick bonus case, the NFL accused him of bias and sought to end his oversight of its contract with the players union. The appeals court says the contract should remain under Doty's oversight. |
