Giants WR Burress suffers accidental gunshot wound
By PA SportsTicker
New York Giants star wide receiver Plaxico Burress accidentally shot himself in the leg Friday, according to multiple media reports.
Burress was hospitalized with gunshot injuries Friday night that were not believed to be life-threatening, FOX Sports.com reported Saturday.
A spokesman for the Giants on Saturday told PA SportsTicker that the team had no comment, although they acknowledged they are aware there was an incident.
Burress has not practice all week due to an ailing hamstring and already had been ruled out of Sunday?s game against the Washington Redskins.
Citing sources familiar with the situation, the New York Daily News reported that Burress was shot late Friday night, but no further details of the incident are available.
Burress, who has 41 receptions for 454 yards and four touchdowns, aggravated the hamstring injury early in Sunday?s 37-29 triumph over the Arizona Cardinals and has not practiced this week.
It has already been a tumultuous season for Burress, who missed the team?s October 5 game against the Seattle Seahawks after being suspended for missing a team meeting.
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.
The Record of Bergen County reported last month that police responded to two domestic disturbance calls at the home of the star wide receiver in the past six months.

Another distraction for the Giants...What I want to know is what was he doing with a gun in a nightclub?
He's lucky he didn't shoot himself around where Sean Taylor got shot. Would that be considered suicide?

who names a kid D'Qwell?
But seriously, Isn't he supposed to be out with a hamstring injury? Whats he doing in a club then? ...if he can move on the floor, he can move on the field.
Oh and of course...WHAT THE HELL WAS HE DOING WITH A GUN IN A CLUB!!?!?!?!
Say what you want about gun laws and stuff...but seriously, a gun in a club is a bad idea.
