PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Terrell Owens wants Michael Vick to be reinstated by the NFL immediately, and suggested that any thought of extending the quarterback's suspension would be similar to "kicking a dead horse."

Speaking after the Buffalo Bills training camp practice Sunday morning, Owens also referred to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's handling of Vick's status as "unfair."

Vick met with Goodell this past week but has yet to learn when he will be allowed to pursue his NFL career. The former Falcons star was suspended indefinitely in August 2007 after he admitted bankrolling a dogfighting operation.

Vick has served a 23-month federal sentence and was freed from home confinement on July 20. He must still serve three years' probation.
