Wide receiver Plaxico Burress went through another full practice

Source (fanball.com) (WR - nyg) | 0 comments.

Wide receiver Plaxico Burress went through another full practice on Sunday. This time, Burress went full-speed and worked without limitations. "Nobodys more excited than me," Burress informs the New York Daily News. "Im back out there doing some of the things I wasnt able to do over the past year or so. Im getting my feet back under me and getting into game shape." He has been bothered by a sprained right ankle.A lack of practice time didn't hurt Burress much in 2007, and we're hoping his down time in August won't lead to a slow start in September. Fantasy owners should plan on using him in Week 1.

Burress is done with questions about his troublesome right ankle.

Source (nfl.com) (WR - nyg) | 0 comments.

Burress is done with questions about his troublesome right ankle. It feels so good for the first time in more than a year that the New York Giants receiver believes this could be a great year for him, and that's saying something heading into Thursday's NFL kickoff game against the Washington Redskins.Impacts: Burress played the entire 2007 season with a badly sprained right ankle, and it prevented him from practicing more than a handful of times and limited what he could do on the field. Cutting to his right was very limited in his game plan. Despite that, Burress played in every game, caught a team-high 70 passes and a career-best 12 touchdowns.

Plaxico Burress expects to be on the field for the New York

Source (CBSSports.com) (WR - nyg) | 0 comments.

News: Plaxico Burress expects to be on the field for the New York Giants' season opener Sept. 4 against Washington -- bum ankle, flat feet and all. Burress, who caught the Super Bowl-winning pass in the stunning upset of previously unbeaten New England in the title game, disclosed his foot condition Thursday and said he is basically learning how to run again at 31 with the aid of orthotics. "It is something that I am going to have to get used to, basically getting my feet into the shape where they can tolerate it," Burress said before the Giants practiced at the University at Albany. He seemed to rule out playing in a preseason game. The Giants (0-1) play the Cleveland Browns on Monday night at Giants Stadium. "For me it is all about being healthy," Burress said. "I'm not worried about being in shape or catching the football, that's just what I do. It's more about me being healthy." [...]

Plaxico Burress guarantees he will be ready to play in Week 1 against Washington, according to the NY Daily News. His injured right ankle is doing well. His bigger issue at the moment is getting used to the orthotics that hes now required to wear in both shoes (because, he said, hes got flat feet). As a result, both of his feet are sore, and he said the orthotics are going to take some getting used to.Burress noted he will not return to practice fully until he is 100 percent, but he expects to be near that by the time the Giants play the Redskins, which will be a Thursday night game.
