Its being reported that the Eagles are giving the excuse that Mike Vick is having set backs on his concusion recovery, there fore, he will not be playing in this weeks game. However, it's speculated that he is cleared well enough to play, but the Eagles prefer to play the young rookie Nick Foles just for playing time.

Makes sense to me. Maybe the Jets will bring Vick in for a tryout after the Eagles cut him.

not necessarily, symptoms can come and go...i started a thread about this citing Lindros, Primeau and Pronger...just when you think you are in the clear, symptoms can return at any time. It's entirely possible that he feels great one day and the next is completely symptomatic.

Even if he's 100%, putting Vick on the field is absolutely pointless right now.

Yup

Vick shouldn't see the field again this year.  they shouldn't be playing McCoy again either.

No point in jeopardizing Vick's career for a couple of meaningless games that we'll probably lose anyway.

McNabbisgone- No i dont see the Jets wanting a midget QB, they have enough problems with what they have now. Vick will end up in Buffalo.

They could get into LOTS of trouble if they are lying about his concussion test results.
