PHILADELPHIA (AP) Michael Vick showed no signs of rust during the Philadelphia Eagles' practice Sunday, throwing tight spirals with plenty of velocity.
"How does Michael look in the offense? He looks pretty good," offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said. "It was a fairly seamless transition, even though he hadn't played for two years, because of the terminology. It's very similar. Now, many of the details are different and details are where you win football games, so that's the important part there. But the terminology is coming very easily to him."
Mornhinweg said coach Andy Reid will probably make a decision Tuesday on whether Vick will make his preseason debut Thursday at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Vick worked with offensive assistants James Urban and Doug Pederson on Sunday.
"Every day he works with James and Doug he picks up a little more," Mornhinweg said. "He hasn't played in two years, so a lot of it is just getting him into football shape.
"I think he was in decent shape coming in, as far as in general. But moving, cutting, lateral movement, throwing the football, moving while he's throwing the football, that's what we needed to see."
