Report: Eagles among teams talking with Plax

Share

Plaxico Burress has long let known his desire to play for the Eagles.

There is still a shot that he does.

According to an NFL.com report, citing sources, the Eagles are among several teams in contact with the free agent wide receiver.

Burress most recently expressed his interest in joining quarterback Michael Vick in Philadelphia in a radio interview last month.

Burress -- who some believe would be worth a shot with the Birds -- spent last year with the Jets, after serving two years in prison on a gun charge. He caught 45 balls for 612 yards and eight touchdowns last season, though three of those scores were lumped in a Week 7 win over the Chargers.

Burress' one-year deal with the Jets paid him a little more than 3 million.
