Mike Vick, Dog Owner Again, Now Advocating On Behalf Of Animals

Mike Vick is not the most well-liked player who has ever played for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the history of the franchise. While he might not be the only player to ever serve jail time, he is the only one, as far as I’m aware, who has ever been charged with animal cruelty.

Of course, it time with the Steelers was not planned, but berthed by necessity. Heading into the 2015 season, the team was still not yet confident in third-year quarterback Landry Jones to serve as the backup to Ben Roethlisberger.
