Jet Dump Mark Sanchez and Sign QB Michael Vick

Sorry Jets fans but Mark Sanchez is out and free agent quarterback Michael Vick has signed on.

On Friday the Jets announced a HUGE change up that will shock most football fans of the New York team.

CelebNMusic247.com has learned that the Jets have released quarterback Mark Sanchez and signed free-agent QB Michael Vick.

Here is what’s being reported on the changeup with the Jets and their quarterback.

The 33-year-old Vick was the best of the remaining quarterbacks on the market, though the dots seemed to connect him and the Jets even prior to this move. Vick was bumped out of the starting job in Philadelphia by injury and later Nick Foles, then hit free agency in search of a starting opportunity.

He has found it in New York, where he likely will compete with Geno Smith for the No. 1 gig. The veteran Vick has to be considered the favorite to land the role, given Smith’s struggles as a rookie during the Jets’ 8-8 showing in 2013.

Moreover, odds are, the Jets may need both QBs before all is said and done. Vick has finished a full season just once: 2006. He did not play more than 13 games during any of his four years in Philadelphia.

Vick said in a team press release:

“It means a lot to have the chance to come in and play for a great organization that had a lot of success last year and being on the brink of doing some good things.”

“Maybe I can come here and be an asset whenever my number’s called. I’m excited, I’m elated, and I feel like this is a great opportunity for me and my family.”

The Jets posted Vick signing on to the team in th following tweet:
