Michael Vick endorsed Nick Foles to remain as starting quarterback of the Philadelphia Eagles even after he is fully healed from his injured hamstring.

Vick came to Foles' side even before Chip Kelly, Pat Shurmur and Howie Roseman.

“In all honesty, in all fairness, how can you take a guy out of the game who’s been playing so well?” Vick said.

“I’ve been in this stage before, and I know what it’s like. I understand the position that this team is in, and the one thing I never want to do is be a distraction or put our team or our coaches in a position where they feel like they’re not doing the right thing or I feel like they’re not doing the right thing.

“I trust what’s going on, I enjoy being a part of it, I love the game of football in general. So it’s important to me to be there in support and be ready if my name and number is called again.”
