Steelers sign free agent QB Michael Vick

The Steelers signed free agent quarterback Michael Vick. Their projected backup Bruce Gradkowski was placed on season ending I.R. after undergoing surgery for a dislocated finger. Vick is a veteran backup and former star who will likely serve as the QB2 in Pittsburgh. He brings a different dimension to the team, as well as veteran leadership.

Fantasy Analysis:

Vick said he would have to wait for an injury to get signed and that's exactly what happened. It's amazing that Ryan Lindley was on a roster and Vick wasn't. Although he's clearly a shell of his former self, he still brings more than enough to the table to be on an NFL roster.
