Per Adam Schefter, Mike Vick meeting with Pittsburgh Steelers

If Vick ends up signing here, I think this is a great situation for him. A very stable organization, and I have a lot of respect for Mike Tomlin, who also has VA ties. This, arguably, could be the best surrounding cast on offense that Vick has ever had. Obviously, there is no question about Big Ben as the starter, but Vick won't be forced into some awkward mentorship/pseudo-QB competition like he had in New York last year. This might open up some opportunity for Vick to be thrown in as a little change-of-pace/wildcat wrinkle here and there. And in the case Big Ben goes down, the Steelers have an excellent option coming off the bench.

I hope this ends up happening. Pittsburgh is close by to his home here in VA, and if he can come in and learn the playbook, I think he could have a spot there to finish out his career.
