Michael Vick expects his role, contributing to the offense several times a game, to remain the same throughout the course of the regular season.
"As I get more games under my belt, I don't know if my role will increase," Vick said. "I think it'll be pretty much the same, six or seven plays per game to go out and make plays, positive plays.
"Help the team not hurt that team, which is my motto right now. But, if I only get five or six plays throughout the rest of the season then I'm content with that. But, like I said, my objective is to win and to help this team get first downs. I want to help this team progress and move forward."
Vick also discussed the report about a BET-produced documentary about Vick's transition back into the NFL.
"We started filming that a long time ago, not with BET, but just on my own," said the quarterback. "I think as the season goes on, I won't have time for it, but hopefully some time in 2010 we can pick up where we left off.
"I think it's important to show our youth and our kids that you face adversity, but you're not responsible for falling, you're responsible for getting up. I'm very remorseful for what happened and for what I did and I don't want people to go down that path. I'm trying to make it right and repair past damages. That's all I want to show, that's what I'm trying to do. People never had the chance to know Mike Vick outside of football. They never got a chance to know me; they only knew me from the case and from football. That's not fair to me, that's not fair to my family, and it's not fair to my fans. I just want to give them an opportunity to see what I'm really about, and it's very positive, it's all positive stuff and I'm excited about it."
Vick restated that the documentary is not something he's currently focuses on though.
"I'm not even thinking about it right now," he said. "It's on the back burner. But some time in 2010 we'll have a chance to put it all together and do the editing. But I have to play football right now and that's the most important thing. That's all I'm concerned about it is helping this team win."
Having missed games himself due to injury in the past, Vick thinks fellow quarterback Donovan McNabb shouldn't have too much of a problem getting back into a rhythm.
"A two-week layoff is not going to hurt Donovan at all," Vick said. "I think he'll come back, he'll come back strong, he'll pick up where he left off from Carolina."
