Michael Vick plans to find a team in the offseason in which he will become their starting quarterback, but he is open to re-signing with the Philadelphia Eagles to remain Nick Foles' backup if "all else fails."

Vick will turn 34 in June and opened the season as the starter.

"I don't worry about it," Vick said, according to CSNPhilly.com. "My skill set is still there, my arm is still there, my legs are still there, I'm still a playmaker, that's evident. I think at some point I'll be playing somewhere."
