November 29: Plaxico Burress accidentally shot himself in leg at a night club in New York
December 1: Burress is charged with two counts of criminal possession of a weapon.
December 2: Giants place Burress on non football injured list marking the last day we will ever see Plaxico Burress in a Giants uniform.
March 31: Court case adjourned until June 15
April 3: Giants officially release Plaxico Burress
June 15: Court case adjourned again until Septermber 23.
Same day, agent Drew Rosenhaus tweets “Now that the legal process is on hold, we are hoping to have a deal in place with a team for Plax before training camps start.”
June 26: Commissioner Roger Goodell notified the receiver that he will be reviewing the incidents involving Burress under the personal conduct policy.
Sources say that the commissioner is leaning towards suspending Plaxico indefinitely as well as QB Michael Vick and WR Donte’ Stallworth.
There is still no final decision on what the commissioner will do with Burress and the others. If the verdict is not in Plax’s favor, expect some defiance from him and his lawyers.
As much as Burress wants to play this season, most of the possible suitors for him are backing out. Tampa Bay, Chicago, and the Jets have all but said they do not want any part of the disgruntled receiver.
Agent Rosenhaus says that there are two other teams in contact but there is no inclination as to who they are.
