"Get Money": Philadelphia Eagles Sign Michael Vick to 6-Year $100 Million Dollar Deal

Can we say comeback kid or what?  Well whatever you say about Michael Vick these days you better add "PAID IN FULL" to the end of every sentence.  The APs ‘Comeback Player of the Year’ is living up to his name, ESPN is reporting that Michael Vick has signed a 6-Year, $100 million dollar deal with the Philadelphia Eagles, $40 million guaranteed.



Remember that in 2009, Vick returned to the league on third string, but after McNabb’s trade and Kolb’s injury early in the start of the 2010 season, he lead the Eagles to a 10-6 record. He had a great year on the field, making his own career highs in passing and rushing touchdowns. His fans noticed to the tune of submitting the highest number of votes in the NFC to get Vick in the Pro-Bowl.

Considering that Vick has made these accomplishments after being released from prison for a conviction related to a dog fighting ring, Vick has come a very long way and as a QB for the Eagles, has risen to a leadership position. In a recent interview with Inside the Studio, Vick tells Dave Spidero:
 

“I enjoy it, I take on the responsibility of being a leader on this team. I’ve been around for a long time, being in the game for nine years, you learn a lot, you see a lot and you see a lot of guys come and go. I know how to handle a lot of different situations, I take it upon myself to make sure that our young guys are in the best position possible.”
