Eagles QB Michael Vick suited up for Sunday’s game despite his hamstring being at less than 100 percent. Vick didn’t even make it to halftime before he was replaced in favor of rookie QB Matt Barkley.
Vick told reporters following the game that he felt his hamstring “pop” while scrambling out of the pocket.
“I felt good going in. I felt like I did everything that I was supposed to do to reassure myself that I could go out and play,” Vick said, via Pro Football Talk. “But there’s just nothing like actually being in the moment and having to move and having to react. When I did that, that’s when I pulled it again. I felt the pop.”
Vick has an MRI setup for Monday, so it appears as though the Eagles will prepare either Nick Foles or Barkley to start against the Raiders next week. Foles has been sidelined with a concussion, but there’s at least a chance he could be back for Week 9.
