Michael Vick's return to Atlanta began with a midfield embrace with current Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan.
It ended with Vick in the locker room feeling the effects of a concussion he suffered in the third quarter of the Eagles' 35-31 loss Sunday night.
Vick threw for a pair of touchdowns for the Eagles (1-1) but left with what coach Andy Reid later described as a concussion after getting spun by a Falcons rusher into Eagles lineman Todd Herremans. No. 7 staggered to the sideline and appeared to spit out blood coming off the field.
Vick was not hospitalized and was cleared to travel with the team back to Philadelphia, but will have to undergo concussion-specific testing before he can be cleared to return to practice or play in a game.
