Michael Vick Salary At Fox Sports – Where Is He Now?

Michael Vick pockets a salary ranging from $700,000 to $1 million at Fox Sports. And though he may earn millions, his financial woes keep mounting.

Earlier this year, in July, Vick was sued by a group of creditors, who said that Vick owed them $1.2 million. This is one of many legal troubles the FOX commentator is currently facing against him.

Vick has been the analyst for FOX’s one-hour special program named NFL Kickoff since 2017, where he works alongside Charissa Thompson and Charles Woodson. 

In his 15 seasons as an NFL player, Vick reached playoffs twice and was a celebrated player at Atlanta Falcons. But his career took a nosedive in 2007 after his inhumane activities against dogs were revealed, which sent him to prison for 18 months.

Michael Vick Salary At Fox Sports

At Fox Sports, Michael Vick earns a salary ranging from $700,000 to $1 million. This can be stated from the fact that his co-host, Charissa Thompson, earns $700,000 annually. 

The four-time pro bowl winner, Vick, was hired by Fox Sports in 2017. Just before being hired by Fox Sports, Michael worked in the Kansas City Chiefs training camp.

Michael had no whatsoever experience before working with Fox Sports. He tried to follow in the footsteps of footballers before him who joined sports channels after their retirement.

A celebrated player, Michael was not able to win Superbowl in his career that spanned 15 years in NFL. He was embroiled in a huge controversy in 2007, which almost ended his career in NFL. 

Vick, who was playing with the Atlanta Falcons at the time, served 18 months in prison for a dogfighting case. If it weren’t for that controversy, he might have earned not only a Super Bowl ring but also a higher-level salary with Fox Sports.

At one point, he had become the highest-paid NFL player and had signed a $130 million contract of 10 years with the Falcons, but after his conviction, he was thrown out by the Falcons.
