Crumpler was one of a handful of players this past week who said they would like to visit Vick but that visiting rules are very restrictive and that his family members should get priority. Crumpler recently shared his feelings about Vick, whom he spoke with about a month ago, shortly before Vick voluntarily entered jail.

"Mike is not a bad person. I know his heart. I know how much he cares for his family and how much he cares for this game of football," Crumpler said. "He's in a situation now where he's accepted responsibility for his actions. He probably is going to get hit harder than pretty much anybody in the world who's gone through the same situation."

As for his conversation with Vick, Crumpler said, "We spoke at length and a lot of it was positive. I got on him a little bit about some things. It was us being real with each other more than anything.

"Mike's a guy who uplifted whole communities in Atlanta and in Virginia. He took a bad step, and obviously, he's going to pay for it."
