NEW YORK - ESPN reported late Friday that sources close to Roger Goodell are saying that the NFL Commissioner is likely going to reinstate Michael Vick next week - then suspend him for at least the first four games of the season, possibly as many as six.

However, that doesn't mean Vick is going to be able to return right away to the NFL. First he has to find a taker, and when news broke Friday that Vick likely will get a shot as soon as this season to resume his once-promising NFL career, at least one franchise - the Dallas Cowboys, who are notorious for taking on problem players - was already passing.

Owner Jerry Jones says Dallas has no plans to sign the suspended quarterback. Jones has repeatedly said since Vick was released by the Atlanta Falcons last year that his team won't sign him.

Responding to a question Friday about Vick, Jones said his stance hasn't changed.

"It hasn't," Jones said, emphasizing that by repeating that phrase twice more in a matter of seconds.
