Michael Vick & Nike, Together Again!
Last month, we asked which sneaker brand did you think was going to sign Michael Vick? Nike received the most votes (of course), and today word hit the net that Vick is down with Nike again. No info on the intricate details about Vick’s new Nike contract has been released yet. Read more info below:
NEW YORK — Michael Vick is back with Nike two years after the company severed ties over the quarterback’s involvement in a dogfighting ring.
“Mike has a long-standing, great relationship with Nike, and he looks forward to continuing that relationship,” his agent, Joel Segal, said Wednesday.
Segal would not reveal terms of the agreement. Nike declined a request for comment.
The deal was announced during a panel discussion at the Sports Sponsorship Symposium by Michael Principe, the managing director of BEST, the agency that represents Vick. via ESPN
We’re looking forward to seeing what Vick and Nike have planned.
Feel free to express yourself in the comments section…

Every dog has its day LoL
Vick and Nike were inseparable
and now there is proof!
^I just want to see the shoe. lol
.
I think this is a good look for Nike and Vick.
cool. i hope to see those vick’s g-roc showed in his video a while back
if NIKE wanted to lose business so badly, they should’ve just said so (-_-).
i wouldn’t be surprised if a pair of dunks comes out in a bloody-red tint, with chains, scattered money, and a VARIETY of doq breeds on it ;
- – in a nutshell: FUCK michael vick !
LMAO! I called it G-Roc on our conversation!!!
do you think they would give vick another signature shoe after what happened or would he merely be wearing nike cleats?
bad choice NIKE (v_v) ..
Lame. Nike doesn’t need this guy.
People gon hate but like my boi T.i said, “Hate if you want but you wastin your time!” Good to see a man who made a mistake get a second chance!!!! Big ups to Vick and Nike just wish we coulda got ya here in DUVAL.
agreed ^
I voted Nike on that poll last month, how ironic….Falcons’ should reinstate his contract….shiet in some countries, animal fightin is a form of entertainment cuz they don’t have televisions.
CenValCali & I quote “shiet in some countries, animal fightin is a form of entertainment cuz they don’t have televisions.” ahaha you a fool for that one but so is cock fighting! I have yet to hear that any athlete or famous person has been fighting their roosters lmfao
As for the nike & vick thing that’s good that they didn’t turn their back on him..
effin lame sauce
yes i got like the second vicks and they fresh and hella comfortable good decision nike
^^Starz….Roy Jones Jr. got a chicken coop in his backyard full of roosters, but idk if he uses them for fightin….he’s a boxer so need I say more?
I knew it would happen sooner or later!
That’s a good look for Nike and Micheal Vick. If you don’t believe a person deserves a second chance then you’re a hypocrite because each and every one of us has been giving a second chance in life…….
LET’S GO VICK!!! You have more supporters than haters!
I’m from Philly, and still: Fuck Vick and Fuck the Eagles. Gotta support Brian Dawkins and the Broncos.
If Kobe gets a go so should Mike Vick! Welcome back home MV7! Maybe we will get those Zoom Vick Vs now?
i thought he was gonna have to build up to get to nike i was thinking more under armor but aye this is the best connection righ there nike showed him a lot oflove with his shoes they were tough
CenValCali I wouldn’t doubt it if he did fight his roosters ahaha
I knew Nike couldnt resist… Congrats to Vick, Good look for Nike an Vicks future..
The man has paid his debt to society so no need for NIKE not to sign him….If you people havent noticed his jersey is #1 in the NFL as soon as he came back…Its all about the dead presidents not loyalty to Michael Vick…If it makes money then it makes sense…Plus in the hood (where his shoes and jersey sell the most) nobody cares about dog fighting or him going to jail. If anything it boost his celebrity. Not saying I agree but its a fact!
Um happy 4 the dude.he’s bouncing back after that incedent.do ya thang vick and F tha haters
I love companies like Nike and Reebok who take chances with guys like Vick, Kobe, and AI and not worry about their off the court issues or things like AI’s so called thug image when AI is just being himself and keeping it real.
soon enough everyone will look past the incident that involved vick. but..good for nike and vick i suppose.
now espn is reporting that “Nike said Thursday it does not have a “contractual relationship” with Michael Vick, a day after the quarterback’s agent announced a deal with the manufacturer.”
In a statement released Thursday morning, Nike said it has “agreed to supply product to Michael Vick as we do a number of athletes who are not under contract with Nike.”
im blown sign him a contract and kep the shoes going i think its a first baby step tho gettin the foot back in the door
Hmmmmmm…. so no more signature shoes for Vick????
In a nutshell fuck domo! The man has paid his debt to society and has lost so much already. Why shouldn’t he get an endorsement? He has a family to feed. I am a dog owner and I still don’t believe a dogs life is over a human life. Donte stallworth killed a HUMAN and got less than a month!! I love dogs but still they are dogs, not humans. Congrats mike vick, u deserve it. Fuck drunk driving ass donte stallworth!
