Suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick’s next step in the legal process is scheduled to mark an end to his incarceration at the federal penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kan. on May 20, according to Kelly Naqi of ESPN.com. Per Vick’s lawyer, Vick will be allowed to complete his sentence at home in Hampton, Va., on federal dogfighting charges through July 20. Following that date, the terms of Vick’s sentence requires him to complete three years of supervised probation. According to the report, Vick will be working construction with a salary of $10 per hour and living with his fiance and their two children. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has said that Vick must demonstrate “genuine remorse” for his crimes in order to potentially be reinstated to play.
