Let Vick Play

Tony Dungy believes Michael Vick is focused on putting his life back together.

The former Indianapolis Colts coach has agreed to mentor Vick as part of the quarterback’s conditional reinstatement to the NFL.

“I’m not sure what football is going to hold for him; that will be discussed at length in the sports pages over the next few weeks,” Dungy said in a post on his blog Tuesday. “I believe in second chances for people who admit their mistakes and are committed to changing.”

“I think Michael deserves the chance to show people he has changed and learned from past mistakes, but my true hope is that he will make sound decisions about his future and, at the same time, let people know more about the person that I’ve come to know recently. I know the public will be skeptical, but I think, over time, people will find there’s a different side to him than what they’ve seen so far.”
