Vick has a connection to the Chiefs — specifically coach Andy Reid. Reid was the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles when they signed him after his time in prison for dog fighting.
Vick was last seen in the NFL in 2015 as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Following the 2016 season, he officially retired.
His name has been in the news recently, though, making comments about free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick and his hair.
Vick has also stated that he’ll play in a flag football league, which will launch in 2018.
