Default Jan. 24 ESPN Insider: Plaxico Burress
Plaxico Burress
Steelers

Jan. 24 - WR Plaxico Burress sports a tattoo across his upper back which reads, "Everything Happens For A Reason." With five catches for 67 yards in two playoff games, Burress feels his days in Pittsburgh are over.

"Probably so," he told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. "It's Pittsburgh -- history speaks for itself. (The Steelers are) not going to change and I'm not going to change. I'm just going to keep trying to be one of the greats, but three or four balls just doesn't suit me very well."

Burress' 35 receptions and five TDs in 11 games are his lowest totals since his rookie year in 2000. The Steelers are a running team and Burress doesn't believe he fits in with the offense.

"I just don't feel like I'm involved -- that's the way I feel," he added. "I said that I wanted to be more involved with this offense at the beginning of the season. If you have guys who can go out there and make plays for you, you should give them the opportunity to make plays, you know, put some onus on our shoulders. But I can't change things."
