Eagles quarterback Michael Vick signed his franchise tender Wednesday, the team announced, confirming a Philadelphia Inquirer report.

Vick received an exclusive-rights tender, meaning he will be paid the average of the top five highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL. The amount he's paid, which a league source told NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora will be slightly more than $16 million, also could depend on whether Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning signs his franchise tender (worth $23 million) or works out a long-term contract.

Vick's signing of the one-year deal was little more than a formality, as he and the Eagles both said in recent weeks that they'd like to continue their association after the quarterback's Pro Bowl season.

Thought this was interesting. After they got whipped in the playoffs by Green Bay, I'd heard some rumblings from some Philly fans that there was some disappointment in how he ended the season.

Guess there was nothing to that.

Rumblings from fans do not equal what the FO and staff think about a player.
