NFL Football Betting Reinstates Vick-Football Betting

NFL commish Roger Goodell has reinstated former Atlanta Falcons QB Michael Vick.

Vick’s return is conditional but he is free to practice with teams and take part in meetings should he sign with a team.

He will be able to play Football Betting in last two exhibition games and will be eligible for full reinstatement into the league by Week 6 of the regular season at the very latest–ESPN reports that Vick will apply for reinstatement as early as Week 1.

Seattle has been mentioned as a possible destination as head coach Jim Mora Jr. coached Vick in Atlanta.
For now, Vick is out of the league's doghouse, pun most certainly intended. The face of America's underground dog-fighting community is free to sign with any team willing to take on all the baggage that comes with him.

Goodell will permit Vick to practice immediately in training camp - when and if he signs - and even play in his new team's final two preseason games.

But once the season begins, Goodell might not even consider allowing Vick to play in the regular season until Week 6, Oct. 18. Yet it's also possible Vick will be cleared to play as early as Week 1.

Confused? So are we.

Regardless, Vick and his agent, Joel Segal, aren't squawking. Why would they? Vick will be getting paid either way. So you see, it's not really a suspension.

The Seahawks are listed as 7-point favorites for their Week 1 regular season matchup against the St. Louis Rams.
