“I’m excited to be a part of this project because as a kid, I just wanted to try to play in the National Football League. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would be the first black quarterback drafted No. 1 overall. I know it was a huge step for us in society,” Vick said in a statement. “I’ve always been told I revolutionized the quarterback position, but I also like to pay tribute to those I idolized as a kid who paved the way, like Randall Cunningham, Steve McNair and Donovan McNabb. When you look at the evolution of the black quarterback, it’s because of the guys who came before us. And now I’m grateful for the dual-threat concept that changed the game for the better.”

The Fox NFL analyst and his wife, Kijafa Vick, Constance Schwartz-Morini of SMAC Productions and David Gandler and Pamela Duckworth of Fubo Studios are serving as executive producers. Fred Anthony Smith, vice president of unscripted programming at SMAC Entertainment, is set to direct and produce the series.
