Plaxico Burress 2008 season is officially over. He has been suspended by the Giants for the last four regular season games for conduct detrimental to the team, citing multiple and repeated violations of club rules. He was placed on the non-football injury list which means you won’t see Plax this season including the playoffs.

The Star Ledger’s Mike Garafolo provides us with some quotes from John Mara, John Tisch, Jerry Reese and Tom Coughlin:

John Mara

“As we have said since Saturday morning, our concern is for Plaxico’s health and well-being,” Mara said. “This is an important time for him to take care of his body and heal up and also deal with the very serious legal consequences and other issues in his life. When I spoke with Plaxico he expressed great remorse for letting down his teammates.”

Jerry Reese

“The decision we made today regarding Plaxico’s roster status was based on the examination of Plaxico by our team physician,” Reese said. “Dr. Rodeo believes Plaxico would be out at least four to six weeks with the gunshot wound. I had two conversations with Plaxico today, and it was obvious that he understood the magnitude of this situation. He knows that we are here to support him and help him get healthy.

Tom Coughlin

“When you lose a player of Plaxico’s ability, it is incumbent that everybody step up and fill the void,” coach Tom Coughlin said. “In the last two seasons, this team has done an outstanding job of that. We made it clear to Plax today that we are here to support him in any way possible.”

John Tisch:

“Our concern all along has been for Plaxico the person, not Plaxico the player,” team chairman Steve Tisch said. “We are here to support him and his family as he recovers from his wound and deals with some serious issues.”

Burress was also fined an undisclosed amount and the Giants will fill Burress’ roster spot tomorrow.
