Michael Vick injury: Eagles QB still not cleared

McCoy traveled to Pittsburgh to undergo further testing, according to the team.

Here’s Eskin on Twitter, delivering the news:

If his season is in fact over, Vick will finish with 2,165 passing yards, completing 59.0 percent of his throws, with 11 touchdowns and nine interceptions.

Vick is no closer to passing the test this week than he was last week. He was expected to play this week after being called “close” to passing last Saturday, but he apparently has not progressed as he tries to recover from the head injury. The quarterback will need to be cleared by an NFL-approved doctor as well as the Eagles’ doctor before being allowed to play due to the league’s concussion protocol. It’s not clear whether the Eagles will continue to start Foles if and when Vick is cleared to play.

Foles has looked slightly worse than Vick in his three games since Vick was injured against the Cowboys Week 10, completing passes at a marginally higher rate, but for less yards per attempt, and notably throwing three picks against only one touchdown while Vick had thrown 11 touchdowns to nine interceptions.

Head coach Andy Reid would not comment on who he would start if Vick were healthy, saying that he wouldn’t rush back the quarterback after he suffered a concussion.

Foles says that he still considers Vick to be the starter. Winning would be a tough task for either starter, with running back LeSean McCoy also dealing with a concussion and Desean Jackson now possibly out with a rib injury.

Here’s Rapoport’s tweet on the matter:

For the season, Vick has thrown for 2,165 yards - completing 58.5 percent of his passes - along with 11 touchdowns and nine interceptions.
