Nike Denies Deal With Vick
Posted: 12:01 pm EDT October 1, 2009
Nike says it does not have a "contractual relationship" with Michael Vick, a
day after the quarterback's agent announced a deal with the manufacturer.
In a statement released Thursday morning, Nike says it has "agreed to supply
product to Michael Vick as we do a number of athletes who are not under
contract with Nike."
On Wednesday, Michael Principe, the managing director of BEST, the agency that
represents Vick, announced the Philadelphia Eagles player had a new deal with
Nike during a panel discussion at the Sports Sponsorship Symposium.
Vick's agent, Joel Segal, did not immediately return a call for comment
Thursday.
Nike, which signed Vick as a rookie in 2001, terminated his contract in August
2007 after he filed a plea agreement admitting his involvement in a dogfighting
ring.
