It has been reported by FoxSports.com that New York Giants star receiver Plaxico Burress accdidentally shot himself in the leg last night while at a nightclub. Burress spent the night at a hospital and the injury is not life threatening.
After helping to lead the Giants to a successful and remarkable Super Bowl Championship victory last season, Burress signed a five-year, $35 million contract just prior to the start of the Giants first game of the 08′ season.
It was believed that Burress’ most embarrassing and perhaps “stupidest” moment was already in his past. In week four of his rookie season, while with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Burress caught a pass and then spiked the live football! The ball traveled backwards and was recovered by the Jacksonville Jaguars. I’d have to say he’s found a remarkably inventive way to top that gaffe.
