Plaxico shoots himself

Saturday, November 29th, 2008 | NFL

New York Giants star wide receiver Plaxico Burress accidentally shot himself in the leg Friday while in a NY city club. His injuries were not believed to be life-threatening and was released from the hospital on Saturday. Not much has been released from the NFL or the Giants and the amount of time he will be out has also not be discussed. Burress, who signed a five-year, $35 million contract extension prior to the season, also was involved in a sideline confrontation with coach Tom Coughlin during a game and has been fined multiple times for a total of approximately $200,000.
