The New York Giants knew that Plaxico Burress was a handful during the fall of 2008, less than a year after Burress had helped the team win a Super Bowl. Off the record, a team official stated that Big Blue had reportedly fined Burress “40-50 times” during his tenure with the club for a variety of infractions, such as being late to meetings. Burress went from being an annoyance to a cancer when he accidentally shot himself in November 2008. That incident resulted in Burress never again playing for the Giants and it played a significant role in a talented New York side failing to repeat as Super Bowl champions.
