So far, Vick hasn't shown much

PHILADELPHIA — Michael Vick has this handing-off thing down. He's waiting to do more.

Two games into his return to the NFL, the former Atlanta Falcons quarterback hasn't been a factor for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Used primarily to run Philadelphia's version of the wildcat offense, Vick has come in for 17 plays in non-garbage time. He's lined up at quarterback 13 times and was split out as a wide receiver on four plays. His totals: two incomplete passes, one carry for 7 yards, no catches or intended passes, 10 handoffs.

Clearly, the Eagles brought Vick in to do more. But the Eagles are in no rush to show opposing defenses too much when they routed Kansas City 34-14 in Vick's debut in Week 3 and beat Tampa Bay 33-14 on Sunday.
