As far as Marty Mornhinweg is concerned, Michael Vick is looking good for the Philadelphia Eagles.
That is what the team’s offensive coordinator told the Newport Daily Press as the team ramps up preparation for training camp where, barring anything unexpected at this point, Vick will be the team’s backup quarterback.
“I think he’s back,” said Mornhinweg, who was instrumental with coach Andy Reid in Vick landing in Philadelphia last summer.
“In our mini camps, you could see that great, great athleticism,” Mornhinweg said. “I would expect great things from Michael Vick this year.”
It will be interesting to see what the Eagles have in mind for Vick on game day during the regular season. Will they be hesitant to turn to him as much in a wildcat package? For starters, they need to make certain starter Kevin Kolb is completely comfortable. They also don’t want Vick getting hurt with only Northwestern rookie Mike Kafka behind him. Maybe we’ll get a hint as to what the Eagles have in mind in the preseason. When we assume Vick will still be on the roster.
