The Facts:
Appearing during NBC's telecast of tonight's Hall of Fame game, Tony Dungy suggested that Vick is likely to sign with an NFL team soon -- potentially this week. Dungy said he has spoken with a number of coaches and knows that multiple teams have interest in signing Vick.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert pointed out, Packers GM Ted Thompson's refusal last week to rule out interest in Vick has fueled reports that the Packers are on a short list of teams that would consider signing him. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported over the weekend that the Packers have done extensive research on Vick but were in a holding pattern. Seifert, however, suggests that Chicago might be a more logical destination given Bears HC Lovie Smith's relationship with Dungy and Smith's recent comments that Vick deserves a second change. Whatever the destination, if Dungy's timetable is right, we'll all know soon enough.
