Michael Vick will be back as the starting quarterback this weekend when the Philadelphia Eagles face the New York Giants, according to Philly.com
Vick sat the last two games and was replaced by Nick Foles after suffering a hamstring strain against the Giants on Oct. 6. Foles suffered a concussion in Sunday's 17-3 loss to Dallas.
In Foles' two starts, the Eagles finished 1-1. He was replaced by rookie Matt Barkley in last week's game, who promptly threw three interceptions on his first three drives.
According to Philly.com, Vick plans to return this weekend, even if his hamstring hasn't completely healed. The Eagles are slated to begin preparations for the Giants on Tuesday.
Vick has gone 1-3 as a starter and played a half in the Eagles' 31-20 win over the Giants earlier this month. He has thrown for 1,185 yards, completed 53.8 percent of his passes and tossed five touchdowns against two interceptions. He's also ran for 307 yards and two touchdowns.
Foles struggled mightily against the Cowboys, completing just 11 of 29 passes for 80 yards. On the season, he's thrown for 622 yards and six touchdowns.
