 Vick says "getting close" to finding a team
NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — Michael Vick says he is getting close to signing with a team but had no other details for reporters after a bankruptcy hearing in Virginia.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell conditionally reinstated Vick on Monday, a week after the former Atlanta Falcons star completed his 23-month sentence for running a dogfighting ring. Vick is free to sign with a team and could be playing in the NFL by week six.
On Thursday, Vick was at a hearing on his bankruptcy case. Reporters asked him as he left court if he was making any progress on signing with a professional team.
Vick said "We're getting close" but didn't specify if he meant the NFL and declined to provide any other details.
