NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL has suspended Michael Vick indefinitely.
The suspension comes after a plea agreement was filed in federal court in Virginia today, in which Vick admitted his involvement in a dogfighting ring.
In a summary of facts in the case, Vick admits to backrolling Bad Newz Kennels and its gambling operation. He also admits to participating in the execution of dogs that did not perform well in testing sessions.
The summary says Vick did not place bets himself, nor did he receive any winnings.
Vick is scheduled to formally enter the plea Monday. The judge in the case is not bound by the sentence recommendations. The charges are punishable by as much as five years in prison.
Vick's attorney says his client's role “was different” than that of his three co-defendants in the case, and he would try to explain that to the court.
