Marcus Deon Vick (born March 20, 1984)[1] is an American former professional football quarterback. He played college football at Virginia Tech, following the career path of his older brother Michael. However, several legal infractions and unsportsmanlike play led to Vick being dismissed from the school in 2006. Vick joined the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League (NFL) the same year as an undrafted free agent, but was released after appearing in only one game. Since the end of his playing career, he has continued to face various legal troubles.
