SI's Peter King suggests the 49ers as a possible backup plan for free agent QB Michael Vick.

The obvious landing spots for Vick are places that can offer him a chance to compete for the starting job. King says the Jets make the most sense and lists the Raiders as well. But if those opportunities dry up, backup jobs with the Eagles and 49ers will come into play. Colin Kaepernick's No. 2 right now is McLeod Bethel-Thompson. Last year's backup, Colt McCoy, is a free agent.

Free agent Michael Vick is unlikely to sign with the Jaguars or Vikings after they re-signed Chad Henne and Matt Cassel, respectively.

PFT's Mike Florio reports that the Jaguars' "interest" in Vick may not have been genuine, and may have been floated to the media in an effort to get Henne to agree to terms. The Vikings were never really thought to be a realistic option, either. Other teams that could have interest in a veteran quarterback include the Jets, Bills, Texans, Bucs, and Raiders. The Jets make a lot of sense for Vick.

The Associated Press reports free agent Michael Vick could still end up re-signing with the Eagles.

According to a source, Vick could return if he "doesn't find the right fit elsewhere." Speaking in January, Vick himself said he'd be willing to return if "all else fails," so it's not exactly news. Vick has been linked to essentially every quarterback-needy team. He's likely moving on.

A source tells Profootballtalk that free agent Michael Vick could become a serious option for the Vikings if they fail to re-sign Matt Cassel.

Outside of Adrian Peterson, it's the first time Vick has been linked to the Vikings. He'd make the Vikes more competitive than Cassel, but would be a far poorer bet to stay healthy. The league's anonymous sources have yet to identify a favorite for Vick's services.

NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports the Jaguars could be interested in free agent Michael Vick.

Per Rapsheet, the Jags still want to re-sign Chad Henne, "but would be in" on Vick or Josh McCown. Vick has been linked to just about every quarterback-needy team, but a favorite for his services hasn't emerged. The Jags would have no need for Vick if they keep Henne as their bridge quarterback.

Adrian Peterson tweeted his desire for the Vikings to sign free agent QB Michael Vick.

Peterson is never shy about giving personnel advice. This offseason, he's stated he doesn't want the Vikings to roll with a first-round rookie, instead preferring them to re-sign Matt Cassel. Now he took to Twitter to say he believes Vick would instantly make the Vikings a playoff team. Peterson's desire to win now is understandable as he enters his age-29 season. The problem is that Vick would be a heavy underdog to stay healthy long enough to reach a January game. ESPN's Adam Schefter has previously written that he doesn't see the Vikings going after Vick.

ESPN's Adam Schefter would not be surprised if the Bills "made a run" at free agent Michael Vick.

ESPN's Adam Schefter stated on the Ross Tucker Podcast that he "definitely" expects the Jets to be "in play" for free agent Michael Vick when the market opens.

Schefter indicated the Jets' interest in Vick is stronger than their desire to sign fellow free agent Josh McCown. "I don't expect Michael Vick to be back in Philadelphia," said Schefter. "...And then he's gonna have to decide what's the best circumstance for him moving forward. I think the Jets will be in play. ... I definitely think the Jets will have some level of interest in Michael Vick. Definitely." The Jets would view Vick as a training camp competitor with beleaguered sophomore quarterback Geno Smith.

A source confirms to PFT that the Bengals have no interest in free agent Michael Vick.

When Vick first got out of prison and Andy Dalton was a rookie in 2011, the Bengals reportedly had interest. But now that Vick is an injury-prone 34-year-old, rocking Dalton's boat wouldn't make much sense. Vick would be a far better fit as a bridge quarterback with a team like the Raiders, Jets or Texans. Meanwhile, there have been whispers that the Bengals are looking to extend Dalton's contract, which expires after the 2014 season.

CBS' Jason La Canfora reports the Raiders are "mulling" free agent Michael Vick.

La Canfora also reports the Texans are "seen as a likely landing spot for (Vick)," but it's unclear if he's simply spitballing. Per La Canfora, the Jets are an unlikely landing spot, while the Eagles remain in play. There haven't been many concrete reports on a soft market's "top available quarterback," but that should change in the run up to the March 11 start of free agency.

According to NFL Network, "it's clear the Jets are viewed as a legitimate possible landing spot" for free agent Michael Vick.

This flies in the face of a Sunday report from plugged in New York Daily News Jets beat mean Manish Mehta, who is hearing that a Vick signing is "unlikely." It's possible that both reports have validity. The Jets are a legit possibility for Vick because he has ties to Marty Mornhinweg and could mentor Geno Smith. But it's unlikely because they're not interested in the distraction Vick inevitably brings.

The New York Daily News reports the Jets are "unlikely" to sign free agent Michael Vick.

In the event Matt Schaub is released by the Texans, he's not expected to be interested in signing with the Jets as Geno Smith's backup. Vick has a history with Jets OC Marty Mornhinweg, as the two worked together in Philadelphia for four seasons. Vick is easily the top free-agent quarterback on the market and should find a team willing to give him a legitimate shot at a starting job.

One NFL personnel executive confirmed to NFL.com that Michael Vick is "undoubtedly" the best quarterback on the free-agent market and will land a starting job this offseason.

"There are too many teams that are in need of an upgrade for him not to be looked at as a starter," the NFL executive said. "Vick could be a very good bridge starter for two to three years." Vick has reportedly drawn interest from the Jets and Bucs this offseason, while the Vikings, Texans, Raiders, and Jaguars are all in the market for a starting quarterback. He isn't more than a mid-tier starter at this point, but showed he was capable of leading a team when on the field for the Eagles in 2013. Despite entering his age 34 season, Vick is likely to command multi-year deal this offseason.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Sunday Countdown that the Jets and Bucs are both "expected to have some level of interest" in free agent Michael Vick.

Vick's old offensive coordinator in Philly, Marty Mornhinweg, is entering his second year as the Jets' OC. The Bucs recently hired Lovie Smith as head coach and could pursue competition for holdover sophomore Mike Glennon. Both clubs have salary cap room to spend and young quarterbacks on their current rosters who've yet to establish themselves in the league. Vick turns 34 in June.

CSN Philly suggests the Raiders as a possible landing spot for impending free agent Michael Vick.

Asked Monday about free agent Michael Vick, Eagles coach Chip Kelly replied "I love Michael Vick. That guy is awesome."

It's futher indication the Eagles would "love" to have Vick return as Nick Foles' backup in 2014, but that decision will be left up to a quarterback turning 34 in June whose NFL stock is enhanced by a bone-bare free agent market at his position. These are the top five signal callers whose contracts are up: 1. Vick 2. Josh McCown 3. Josh Freeman 4. Shaun Hill 5. Chad Henne.

Impending free agent Michael Vick said he's willing to be Nick Foles' 2014 backup if "all else fails."

According to NFL Network, impending free agent Michael Vick is willing to return to Philadelphia as a backup in 2014.

Entering free agency at age 34 (in June), Vick isn't going to eliminate any options as he seeks a job. Per Ian Rapoport, he "love Philly" and is "close" with starter Nick Foles. Vick will also get some nibbles from desperate teams in search of a stop-gap starter. In the end, we'd expect Vick to land with the highest bidder as his financial issues have been well documented.

Michael Vick has missed 16 full games over the last four seasons and left six other games early due to injury.

With Nick Foles officially being named the starter for the rest of the season, the storyline now turns to Vick's impending free agency. He'll hit the market as a 33-year-old that played reasonably well this year (an an ideal offense for him), but anyone signing him will be assuming a ton of injury risk. Given the state of the quarterback position in the league, we'd tentatively expect Vick to a chance to compete for a job at someone's camp in 2014.

Michael Vick (hamstring) is 100 percent healthy.

Vick is ready to resume clipboard duties behind Nick Foles. Vick said he understands the team's decision to stick with Foles going forward. "You can't be naive," Vick said. "You've got to understand the situation. ... You can't be frustrated by it. I just wanted it to be a smooth transition." Vick is saying all the right things as he likely prepares to move on in free agency this winter.
