Former NFL quarterback Michael Vick, who rose to stardom as a member of the Atlanta Falcons, will be an offensive coordinator for Atlanta's Alliance of American Football team.
The Alliance of American Football, the professional football league that is scheduled to debut next February, announced Wednesday morning that it will have a team in Atlanta that will play at Georgia State Stadium.
"I've always had a passion for teaching, a passion for coaching," Vick said at a news conference on Wednesday morning in Atlanta. "When Brad called me about this opportunity, I felt like it was obviously something I couldn't pass up."
Former Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress will assume that role with the Atlanta team.
