While appearing on ESPN Radio’s “Mike & Mike In The Morning” on Tuesday, former NFL head coach Tony Dungy indicated that free agent quarterback Michael Vick could be signed sometime this week.
Said Dungy: “I think something’s gonna happen this week.”
Dungy also explained that his comments from Sunday night’s Hall of Fame game broadcast on NBC regarding the level of interest in Vick arises from the fact that a dozen NFL coaches have called Dungy for input on Vick.
Dungy said that Vick needs to “get with a football family,” and that the sooner it happens, the better off Vick will be.
We’ll see. Teams have only been in training camp for a little over a week, so general managers and coaches are still trying to figure out what they have on their rosters. Given the baggage that Vick will carry with him, teams aren’t going to just take a flier on him without considering how he could fit into their offense.
Regular readers know that I maintain the notion that the Seattle, Oakland and San Francisco are the most likely destinations for Vick.

I have a friend of a friend telling me Carolina is very very close. The Peppers contract seems to be their issue that may get in the way, nevertheless they are close. I lived in Charlotte for quite awhile, and know they are very interested. I’m even more interested as a fan. The thoughts of Vick getting in there with all those offensive weapons, its all they’re missing.
Carolina would be a great place for him to go. I would also like seeing Vick go to the Ravens because of the strong presence of ray lewis to keep him in line.
yeah let Ray Lewis the murder suspect from a few years back keep the dog killer in line…lol…im a fan of the move but it just sounds funny
I love M.Vick n I think they r going OVERBOARD with the way he is being treated. He was a very good player n any team that signs him will benefit from it!! Give him a break n move on, there r prople who have done much worse.
If Carolina pickup Vick its a wrap. Back to Back Championships. John Fox need know whats best for this team. If Steve Smith an Michael Vick collaborate it will be deadly. He killed dogs, so imagine what he will do to Bears, Seahawks, Jaguars, Ravens, Falcons, Buffalos,…..Let this man live and turn him into a Cardiac-Cat.
