Mora was asked about Michael Vick’s possible return to the league, and was clear about his team’s interest in the Atlanta Falcons quarterback.

Mora said the last time he talked to his former player was before he went to prison in the fall of 2007, and that he believed Vick deserved another chance to play in the league.

“I believe he’s paid his debt to society,” Mora said.

However, that opportunity won’t take place in Seattle.

“It’s a sticky situation, one I’m not comfortable talking about,” Mora said. “I’ll just say this for the record, which is, we are very happy with the quarterbacks we have on our roster, and we have no intentions of adding another player to our roster.”
