During Sunday’s pregame show before the Philadelphia Eagles played against the Dallas Cowboys, an inevitable topic is Michael Vick. So Tony Dungy, now a commentator for NBC, told something new about the quarterback.
The Super Bowl-winning coach retired from the Colts said that it was the Buffalo Bills who originally talked with Vick after he finished serving 18 months in federal prison for running a dogfighting ring. And the Bills will potentially become Vick’s next team if the Eagles do not want to keep Vick after the $1.6 million contract for 2009 with a team option for the second year at $5.2 million expires.
“I told Michael to just worry about this year,” Dungy said. “It’s technically up to Philadelphia. If they want him back, he has to stay there. If they don’t, there are some teams looking for quarterbacks: Cleveland, St. Louis and Washington. But I think a dark horse is Buffalo. They talked originally. There was some communication there. I think that could be a good spot.”
The Bills current starting quarterback is Ryan Fitzpatrick. The career backup got the starting job because the original starter, Trent Edwards has been struggling with a concussion. Not sure if the team still would like to have Vick as the quarterback, still wearing No.7 NFL jersey, has played sparingly this season.
