Witches' Brew: Vick Reinstated

Vick Reinstated

Better start letting "King" sleep in the house cuz, Mike Vick is coming to a town near you. The NFL conditionally reinstated him. Vick can play in the final two preseason games but he won't be eligible to play in the regular season until Week 6.

Of course, everything comes with a catch: Vick's eligibility to play in Week 6 hinges on some hefty rules put in place by the NFL commissioner, including staying on good terms with his probation officer, staying away from any questionable activities off the field and positive reports from outside professionals (whatever that means).

Last week, Vick wrapped up a 20 month sentence for his role in a dogfighting ring.

In a statement, Vick said:

"I fully understand that playing football in the NFL is a privilege, not a right, and I am truly thankful for the opportunity I have been given."

Former Indy coach Tony Dungy will serve as Vick's mentor. Vick is free to sign with any team.
