NFL - Sports Rumors

Five NFL teams are still interested in acquiring the services of wide receiver Plaxico Burress(notes) according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, and Profootballtalk.com.

According Rosenhaus, via his Twitter account, Burress now has five NFL teams interested in him. And that list, according to Rosenhaus, could become even longer soon, Profootballtalk.com reported.

"There are now 5 teams interested in Plaxico," Rosenhaus wrote. "I expect more teams to enter the mix over the next few weeks as well."

It's believed that the New York Jets, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Chicago Bears are among the potential destinations for Burress.

    He's a decent pickup. Just take his gun away from him. The man is dangerous with a gun. Just like Dick Cheney shouldn't go hunting with friends, Plax shouldn't shove a glock down his sweat pants.
    I hope the raiders pick him up. Then we can have a guy who got beat down at a club and one that shot himself in the leg. The double threat.

    No prison time, 8 game suspension from commission/modern-day plantation owner Roger "Make 'em play 22 games a season" Goodell. Sign Plax now and reap the benefits for your playoff run

    He'll go to Tampa. Out of the three, Florida is the only state where carrying a gun is legal. New York and Chicage only crooks can carry guns.Of course it's illegal to fire it in a night club.We don't have laws against being stupid. Tank Johnson moved to Texas and he's no longer a story. Why , cause everyone carrys a gun, legally, same as Florida. The crime rate has dropped significantly since we got our carry law. OH yeah Plaxico we use something called a holster so we don't drop the gun and blow off our big toe. Besides, any pistol that costs more than fifty bucks has safeties that won't let it fire when dropped. Buy a Smith and Wesson next time, dumb ass.

    ...and one international team... the Gitmo Gets ....although Plax is against Gitmo, due to the tax situation in Cuba. And drew may change his last name to Rosenhorsefacedjackase, if Baba Booey doesn't get mad...

    Joe cool, why do you have a computer? You can't spell! I'm no expert at spelling myself, i just don't believe an idiot should buy a computer. You are the idiot I'm speaking of. Hopefully most of the time you spend on the computer is spent on games and porn. You may find that people don't take your comments seriously when you portray yourself as an imbecile. What grade do you have to fail in order to screw up so many words? 6th? 3rd? 1st? Please tell me some heartfelt story about you dropping out of school to help your family! Maybe you're retarded.......................spending most of your time wiping drool from the keyboard and ignoring proper grammar. Alas...............I urge you to change your name, "joe cool". I don't think it's cool to be stupid. Do you? Some kid is probably reading your comments right now and slicing his/her wrist open. I don't think very highly of you "joe cool". I could only imagine the mistakes you made on a job application! Do you take spelling tips from the closed captioning screen? Muppets spell better than you....................and there is some guys hand up there a$$. What's your excuse?

    if the commish really wants to start cleaning up image of nfl...start suspending all these thugs that think they are above the law...won't stop all of them from doing this stuff, but think a good number would reconsider if their fat pay checks and lavish life styles are on the line...stallworth was a good start, buy MUCH more can be done...

    Mark Sanchez has always done good wit WRs 6'+ addin him would give him an arrsenal to throw too!!! I hope the JETS are smart enough to know with him added with Chanse Stuckey and David Clowney and Jericho Cotchery oh yeah and one of my favorites Brad Smith!!!! The JETs offensive pass game would be unstoppable since one would know where they are goin plus they have the #1running back in the league addin him would make them so versitile!!! SO F*$% all you PLAX haters!!!!!

    Ok patriothater. I went back and slowly read "joe cool's" statement and realized he could be attempting to be funny. However,..............he failed. I stand by my original statements until I'm proven wrong. BTW, if there is a joke in his statements, I don't get it. I've heard Plax in many interviews. Although he's no scholar(present day situation noted), he doesn't sound like that. I can't believe the bravery of some people behind the safety of their keyboard. Isn't the internet wonderful?

    Just how many people that post comments on yahoo sports topics, do you think would be in a position to do anything productive, if they had done the same thing Burress had done with his little gangster move? I believe the answer would be next to none. Goodell should remain consistent in dealing with thugs like he has, and send Burress packing!

    Why would anyone even consider a player who could possibly be heading to jail has charactor issues and will be suspended if he pleads guilty and has been nothing but a self centered pain in the arse?

    Send him to prison where his tough guy act will fit right in. Goodell should let all of these thugs know that the NFL now means - "NO FELONS LEAGUE" Grow up or get out.

    See Plaxico is trying to be smart by waiting this court date out and thinking he can get a year salary from someone. then his time a cometh and he does his court date ..then he figures a month or two in the hole after the season. then he returns again for another payday the following year.man just get rid of him once and for all Goodell..Ban his a...s...s. Everyone can see right through his fingers..just like plixglass

    The signing of Burress would be a "shot in the arm" to the Bears stagnant offense. :^)

    Why sign a guy for 1/2 a season? He'll be lucky to play 8 games this year. I hope Goodell makes him an example for all of the THUG/football players. Clean up your act-Idiots. You got kids looking up to you cause they aint got a Daddy at home. Life about carrying guns and dope or killing people after a night of drinking in your car. Wake up.

    I am a die-hard Bears fan. But I don't want to win with that guy or lower my standards for a few W's. Not that bad. Plax can f*** off and go to jail. Then, when he gets out of the slammer, Goodell can suspend him. Hopefully, nobody signs this cancer. Anybody who sports Bears colors and wants this guy needs to turn in their playbook. Forever.
