A steroids trafficker from Plano claimed that he supplied quarterback Michael Vick with the drugs. David Jacobs told The Dallas Morning News before his death that he was Vick's supplier when the wuarterback played for the Falcons. The Morning News did not publish Jacobs' allegations because authorities at the time declined to confirm Vick was part of the Jacobs investigation. Vick was never implicated in the Jacobs steroids case. He was released from home confinement in late July after being sentenced to nearly two years in prison for his role in a dog-fighting ring.
