NEW YORK — Tony Dungy says Michael Vick could potentially wind up in Buffalo, which he says previously discussed signing the quarterback.

Dungy has served as an adviser to Vick since the Super Bowl-winning coach retired from the

Indianapolis Colts after last season. Now a commentator for NBC, Dungy confirmed during the

pregame show Sunday night before Philadelphia hosted Dallas that the Bills and Vick "talked

originally" when Vick was searching for a team after serving 18 months in federal prison for

running a dogfighting ring.

The Eagles signed Vick to a $1.6 million contract for 2009, with a team option for the

second year at $5.2 million. But he has played sparingly.

"I told Michael to just worry about this year," Dungy said. "It's technically up to

Philadelphia. If they want him back, he has to stay there. If they don't, there are some teams

looking for quarterbacks: Cleveland, St. Louis and Washington.

"But I think a dark horse is Buffalo. They talked originally. There was some communication

there. I think that could be a good spot."

Vick has completed 2 of 6 passes for 6 yards this season and rushed 12 times for 27 yards, mostly out of the wildcat formation.
