I’m not pushing my kids to do anything other than be successful at whatever they wanna do,” Mike Vick earlier stated for his children. It indeed showcased that former NFL veteran QB’s freestyle way of parenting. Ex-Falcons‘s quarterback and his entrepreneur wife, Kijafa, have four children – 2 daughters, Jada and London, and 2 sons Mitez and Michael Jr.. Since the Pro Bowler took retirement from the NFL in 2017, he has been enjoying time with his wife and kids.

Besides achieving an accomplished NFL career, Mike is currently making waves for his hiring as a coach for the college football program at Sacramento State and Norfolk State. The ex-legendary quarterback, despite his jail sentence for dog fighting amid the peak of his NFL career, has left a positive impact on his kids. And, for his dad, NFL’s accomplishments, no one is as proud as Mike Vick’s children, Mitez, Jada, London, and Michael Jr.

Mike Vick, 44, and his wife, Kijafa, married in 2012, have been raising their kids with pure love and support. However, the Bert Bell Award winner has his oldest son, Mitez, from his previous relationship with Tameka Taylor, Majestic Talents’s director.

Mike and his former high school girlfriend, Tameka, got blessed with Mitez on July 10, 2002. However, both parted ways later.

Have an interesting take?

Consequently, Mitez had to get used to sharing his time with his parents during his formative years. He made his path, following his passion for modeling to fulfill his ambitions. 22-year-old Mitez is a Miami-based promising dancer, actor, and model. To shape his acting career, Mitez went to the New York Film Academy in 2023. Not only this, he has also featured in multiple short films.

Apart from being a dad to Mitez, the former NFL player is also an inspiration to his oldest daughter Jada. Michael and his wife Kijafa welcomed her on October 12, 2004. And, just like him, she is also deeply involved in football.

Additionally, Mike and Kijafa also have another daughter, London, who they profoundly welcomed on October 19, 2007. Impressively, London has enthusiasm for music. And her mom, Kijafa, never fails to highlight London’s artistic talent through her social media post.

Back in 2017, VH1’s Baller Wives executive producer shared beautiful glimpses of the London’s violin performance on her Instagram. “You can’t tell London she is not Beyonce, that snatch at the end. #sohappythatviolinisgone,” the businesswoman penned in her caption.

Apart from being parents to their two daughters, the pair also welcomed their youngest child, Michael Jr on November 20, 2017. Thrilled at that moment, Kijafa addressed him as her ‘accidental happiness’ and the best thing that happened in her life.

Besides supporting his all kids equally in their career ambitions, Mike Vick has been the greatest source of inspiration to his athletic daughter, Jada. She continues to carry her NFL dad’s football legacy.

Are any of Mike Vick’s kids following in his athletic footsteps?

Michael and Kijafa’s eldest daughter, Jada, is an enthusiastic flag football player. Impressively, just like her dad, she also showcases her dominance in the quarterback position. Jada’s parents often adore her for her jaw-dropping athletic skills.

In 2020, during an interview with the SI interview with Monday Morning Quarterback, Vick charmingly highlighted Jada’s football skills.

“My daughter, Jada, she’s in sixth grade. She’s actually in middle school, but she’s the high school varsity quarterback for the all-girls flag football team, so that goes to show how good she is and how good she can throw the ball,” he stated. Not only this, he also praised Jada’s understanding of football sports. “She understands the game and I think it is an outlet for women as well. I sit back and watch the girls play.”

Apart from this, the former NFL QB also revealed that he even enjoys watching her play live as he attended several games of his young athletic daughter. “It was just a great joy to watch,” he added further.

Not only Jada’s dad but her entrepreneur mom also never fails to adore her other athletic skills beyond football. Through her social media post, she hilariously mentioned that her daughter inherited the athletic ability from her momma,’ not her daddy.‘ Together they make a beautiful family, with a deep interest in sports helping them bond more meaningfully.
