Vick's new deal includes $3.5M signing bonus
Michael Vick - QB - Philadelphia Eagles
Feb. 11, 2013 - 11:45 PM ET

Michael Vick's new one-year deal contains a $3.5 million base salary and a $3.5 million signing bonus.

The key number is the signing bonus because it's guaranteed. The Eagles aren't going to release Vick before the season after guaranteeing him $3.5 million. To bring Vick's one-year deal to $10 million, he's eligible to receive $500,000 in roster bonuses with $31,250 for each game he's on the active game-day roster, $1.5 million if he participates in 90 percent of the offensive snaps, and another $1 million if the Eagles win the Super Bowl and Vick plays in it. All in all, $9 million seems very attainable for Vick in 2013.
