Vick Biography - Turning Pro
After playing as a backup in his rookie year, Michael Vick became
the Falcons' starter in 2002 and was one of front runners to win
the NFL MVP award. His most mind-boggling and exciting performance
of the season came on December 1, 2002 in a 30-24 victory over the
Minnesota Vikings. He scored
two touchdowns and ran for an NFL record-breaking 173 yards - including
a 46 yard dash in overtime to give the Falcons the victory. After
the game, the NFL took Michael's running shoes so they could be
displayed at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. You
can bet that Michael will be joining his shoes in the Hall of Fame,
once he retires. After missing most of 2003 with injuries, Michael
Vick has returned to superstar form in 2004 and has led the Falcons
to the top of the NFC's South division.
