Arena Football League calling on Vick

If Michael Vick can’t find a home in the NFL, arena football may be an option.

According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the Albany Firebirds have offered Michael Vick a conditional contract that’s full of incentives, to play for their squad if things don’t work out in his favor with the NFL. The Firebirds play in the arenafootball2 league.

Apparently, the idea of working with Vick was a contentious one, stirring a heated debate within the Firebirds’ front office, but eventually they came to the conclusion that they could make him an offer that would appease their fans and help them on the field. The contract calls for Vick to donate $100,000 to a local Humane Society, and is highly dependent on his play on the field.

Given his current status in bankruptcy court, it’s doubtful Vick will be accepting the offer anytime soon, but the gesture is undoubtedly appreciated by his supporters. Vick is currently awaiting his release from prison, which should come sometime this summer, afterwhich he expects to be reinstated by the NFL. The Atlanta Falcons currently hold Vick’s rights and have been looking to trade him for some time.
