The Facts:
If Michael Vick winds up parting ways with the Philadelphia Eagles, he's bound to find work elsewhere -- but probably not with the Jets. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday that Vick is not a fit for the New York Jets, who hired Marty Mornhinweg as the team's offensive coordinator this week.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The two "were not on the best of terms last season" when Mornhinweg called plays for the Eagles and that relationship -- along with Vick's price tag -- makes a reunion unlikely. That said, one possible quarterback candidate in New York would be Tarvaris Jackson, who, Schefter notes, shared ties with new general manager John Idzik. When he was with the Seattle Seahawks, Idzik was a supporter of Jackson, who spent the past season with the Buffalo Bills. Jackson is an unrestricted free agent and would come at a relatively cheap cost for the Jets, who find themselves saddled with the unwieldy guaranteed contract they handed Mark Sanchez last offseason. This much appears certain: Sanchez will be surrounded by new faces and confront stiff competition heading into next season.
