Vick was sentenced to 30 days in jail and fined $2,250 dollars in May after he and two teammates were convicted of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
His lawyer has appealed that conviction and a court date has not been set.
Tech athletic director Jim Weaver has said the three players will be disciplined for the earlier conviction.
