Michael Vick will remain the Philadelphia Eagles’ starting quarterback, coach Andy Reid said Wednesday.
The team will resume practice for Monday night’s game against the Saints on Thursday. The Eagles are off and Reid and Vick are not scheduled to address the media again until Thursday.
Reid didn’t endorse Vick after Sunday’s 30-17 loss to Atlanta, saying he’s going to evaluate all his starters. Vick then said he would support whatever decision Reid makes.
That led to speculation Vick’s days were numbered. But Reid is sticking with Vick over unproven rookie Nick Foles as of now.
Reid has changed his mind on his starting quarterbacks in a 24-hour period before, reversing his call on Kevin Kolb and replacing him with Vick in 2010. It’s unlikely he would do it again and give Foles his first NFL snap on the road in a Monday night game against New Orleans (2-5) next week.
