Michael Vick
Michael Vick was born on June 16, 1980 in Newport News, Virginia. Vick played college football with the Virginia Tech Hokies, and in 2001, he was drafted number one overall in the 2001 NFL Draft by the Atlanta Falcons. In 2007, Vick served 21 months in federal prison for his involvement in a dog-fighting ring dubbed “Bad Newz Kennels”, which was found in land property in Virginia and owned by Vick. Following his release from prison, he eventually signed a two year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles to serve as a backup-quarterback in 2009. In the 2010 NFL season, Vick led the Eagles to a 10-6 record as the starting quarterback, replacing Donovan McNabb, who was traded to the Washington Redskins.
