Mike Vick knows about second chances.
The ex-quarterback served 18 months in federal prison following a 2007 dogfighting investigation that revealed his role in mistreating and killing animals. Vick got a second chance in the NFL, spending five seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles (2009-2013), one with the New York Jets (2014) and a final year with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2015.
Many people will never forgive Vick for his role in dog fighting. That is their prerogative. Yet the experience has clearly changed Vick's outlook. Since his prison sentence ended, he's been involved with several charitable organization and spoken out against the mistreatment of animals.
