Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk:
But a source with knowledge of Vick’s thinking previously suggested that he will be attracted to the possibility of working with two specific coaches — Chip Kelly and Jon Gruden. With Kelly now the coach in Philly, the question becomes whether Vick will soften his contractual stance in order to play for the former Oregon coach.
The broader question is whether the Eagles would offer Vick more on a reduced contract than anyone else would offer Vick, if he becomes a free agent. Also, and as Tim McManus of 97.5 The Fanatic in Philly suggested during Tuesday’s PFT Live, there’s a chance Vick has soured on his teammates with the Eagles.
What was out of the question just a few hours ago is now a possibility. The Eagles had reportedly dangled Vick and Nick Foles in front of Kelly as guys who could run his up-tempo system. Maybe he only wants Foles. Here's an article in which Kelly fellates the then-Arizona quaterback.
