He caught five passes in the team segments of the workout, two of them under duress, one on which he nestled down between a pair of defenders in the middle of the field, and latched on to a bullet delivered by free agent rookie quarterback Justin Holland. Vick lined up at quarterback for a few snaps and, while he looks perilously tiny in the pocket, completed one pass. Vick also fielded punts.

That's precisely the kind of job description the Dolphins envision for Vick, who is listed on the roster as a WR/QB/Spec in NFL shorthand. Do a lot of things, try to make a little progress every day, and develop perhaps as a gimmick guy for new coordinator Mike Mularkey, an inveterate trick-play schemer with a deep bag of gadget plays.
