NFL commissioner turns focus to Michael Vick’s future
Thursday, June 25, 2009
SEATTLE (AP) — Commissioner Roger Goodell says he is beginning to focus on evaluating Michael Vick’s future in the NFL.
But Goodell said Thursday his decision on the former Atlanta Falcons star quarterback will come “in due time” and not necessarily before the season begins.

“I haven’t given a timeline,” on a decision about reinstatement, Goodell told The Associated Press during a telephone interview.
Goodell says he has yet to speak to Vick, and won’t sit down with him until after Vick is released July 20 from home confinement and federal custody.
Vick is currently suspended from the league because of his involvement in a dogfighting ring.
