Plaxico Burress missed Wednesday’s practice with a shoulder injury and a stiff neck. Coughlin did not say when Burress was due back.

This is pure speculation on my part but something tells me Plax just hates to practice. It seems like he avoids it at all costs. He does do lots of conditioning, and often stays past when others are done with theirs, but there’s conditioning and getting your reps in. He seems to excel whether he practices or not. I have to think he will do everything he can to face his old team this weekend.
