Eli Manning missed Plaxico Burress when the receiver visited the Giants in free agency, but the New York Giants quarterback plans to catch up with his old target in person when the Giants and Jets face each other on Saturday in a preseason game. "I haven't seen him in a long time so I am looking forward to seeing him before or after the game," he added. Several Giants campaigned for the team to re-sign Burress, who opted to take a fully guaranteed one-year contract worth $3.017 million from the Jets, but before Burress joined Rex Ryan, he visited with the Giants and met with coach Tom Coughlin and general manager Jerry Reese. During that visit, the wideout got to catch up with several Giants but Manning was not one of them. Manning was in a meeting at the time when Burress was visiting, but for the most part, the quarterback wanted stay out of the Burress sweepstakes. He made it clear that the Burress situation was a management decision and that he did not want to offend his teammates and receivers by campaigning for Burress. Source: ESPN New York
What Wrs would he offend if he would want plax back. Steve smith booked it and hakeem nicks wouldent be effected and the rest of the wide outs are average or below.
The Giants offered more money but it was in incentives......the deal the Jets gave him had more guaranteed money. Now that Smith left........having Plaxico would've been nice. But thats neither here or there.
if eli didnt drop plaxco a letter while he was locked up, Eli is a bigger piece of crap than i thought... shelfish bastard
Plax just said he never planned to sign with the Giants so it's moot anyway. I couldn't give a heck regardless.........
