ESPN: Goodell and Vick met this morning

by JasonB on Sep 3, 2009 1:08 PM EDT in Philadelphia Eagles News

With the commissioner working in New York at the league offices and the Eagles up in that area today to play the Jets, it seemed like a convenient time for Roger Goodell and Michael Vick to meet face to face. With roster cuts coming this weekend, Goodell wants to make a decision on Vick by then and he has stated that a face to face meeting was needed before he would reinstate Vick. Reportedly, that meeting took place this morning at the Eagles team hotel.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell met Thursday morning in New Jersey to discuss when Vick might be reinstated for the regular season, according to a league source.

Goodell is expected to announce his decision on when to reinstate Vick this weekend. Most rumors suggest he'll be allowed back as early as week one and as late as week three.

why is it that Vick always has meetings and court trials on gamedays?

They couldn’t schedule that for Wednesday?

Well, like I said they’re both up in the NYC area today. Might as well do it now.

Do you think Goodell would reinstate Vick earlier because he’s in a stable organization like the Eagles than if he were in a relatively instable situation like the Raiders or some such?
