The Facts:
An agent for the suspended Vick told a bankruptcy court on Thursday that he hopes the ex-Atlanta Falcons quarterback could return to the league by September. Joel Segal testified as part of a hearing to assess Vick's plan to emerge from bankruptcy, which was designed with the goal of Vick returning to a professional football career.

As previously noted, Vick, who left a federal prison in Kansas last week to travel to Virginia, was in court for the first time in the case. To return to a team, Vick still must apply to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to be reinstated. He hasn't yet done so, Segal said, and plans first to finish his 23-month sentence for bankrolling a dogfighting operation and when he is ready, start working with strength and QB coaches. Segal said he'd try to negotiate a one- or two-year contract that includes incentives for playing time and a starting position. "He'll let me know when he's ready for that, and when Mike's ready, we have a plan," Segal said.
