The Facts:
A lawyer for the suspended NFL star told a bankruptcy court Thursday that Vick has lined up a construction job for when he gets out of prison. Vick, 28, appeared in court for the first time in his bankruptcy case to explain to a judge how he plans to emerge from his financial problems. "You will hear from Mr. Vick his future intentions, how he's going to change the way he lives his life," his lawyer, Michael Blumenthal, told a U.S. Bankruptcy judge.

Blumenthal said when Vick is released, he plans to work 40 hours a week for a construction company. He did not disclose the wage or give any other details about the type of work that Vick will be performing. It's safe to assume Vick is hoping for a return to the NFL given his bankruptcy plan calls Vick to keep the first $750,000 of his salary -- something that seems a bit unrealistic for your average construction workout. But how and when Vick might begin a NFL comeback isn't clear. Vick was suspended indefinitely after his 2007 indictment, and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has said he will review Vick's status after he is released.
