It's Official: Michael Vick Newest Member of Pittsburgh Steelers

After meeting with the Steelers on Tuesday, former Hokie Michael Vick has signed a contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Vick last took snaps as a member of the New York Jets, and was a free agent. Vick is still quite polarizing, as he was the top trend on Twitter. People were quick to address Vick's past. The dog fighting scandal is still fresh on the minds of many, and many will never forgive. As a football player, Vick is a 35 year old veteran who is trying to prolong his NFL career. With stops in Atlanta, Philadelphia, and New York, the Steelers are his fourth team in 14 years.
