NY Giant Plaxico Burress, who last made it on Rhymes With Snitch for walking out on a $2000.00 bar tab after getting dissed by a chick, shot himself in the leg at a crowded night club in New York last Friday. Plax, who was already benched because of a hamstring injury and fresh off a suspension for missing a team meeting, was treated and released from New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center. A league official said the bullet went through the skin and muscle tissue of Plaxico's right thigh but did not hit any major arteries, and that there were no broken bones.
Plaxico turned himself in this morning, and is expected to be charged with criminal possession of a weapon.
Plax, 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.
