Vick: 'I don't want to be a distraction'

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick has insisted that he is not thinking about losing his starter's job to Nick Foles at the moment.

Vick has been sidelined for the past month with a hamstring injury, which has allowed Foles to come into the team and impress as he tied an NFL record for touchdown passes in a single game two weeks ago.

"I don't know. That's not something that I'm thinking about at this point," Vick told the Philadelphia Inquirer.

"The last thing I want to be is a distraction to this team. I'm just working hard to get myself healthy."

The Eagles are 5-5 in their season and are second in the NFC East after week 10.
