No Vick on the Falcons in the Future

Thank goodness.

Falcons owner Arthur Blank told ESPN.com he wants to see imprisoned quarterback Michael Vick back in the National Football League but not in Atlanta.

“He’s written me and I’ve answered him,” Blank told ESPN.com. “I certainly wish Michael well in the future. I believe in second chances. I believe in third chances. That doesn’t mean I believe in forever chances. But I do believe he’s capable of redemption and learning from his mistakes.”

“We’re committed to Matt Ryan,” Blank also told ESPN.com. “Even before his early success, we were committed to Matt Ryan. We made that decision when we drafted him. When you select someone in the draft at that level and pay him what we’re paying him, you expect him to be successful and you expect him to be a team leader.”
