The New York Giants have suspended wide receiver Plaxico Burress for one game for missing a practice without informing the team. The Giants have a bye in week 4 so he will serve his suspension during week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks. Burress has eight catches for 259 yards and a touchdown in three games this season.
Giant's coach Tom Coughlin had the following to say in regards to the suspension:
"We have had success here because of the team concept and the team concept means basically that everyone is accountable and responsible and that we don't let the other guys down. And that is what we are trying to do. This is a team that is focused and displayed mental toughness and they will do the same thing with regard to this."
