EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -Plaxico Burress has arrived at Giants Stadium, one day after the star receiver was charged with illegal gun possession.
Burress was told by the team to be there Tuesday because he is on the active roster and injured.
Burress accidentally shot himself in the right thigh at a Manhattan nightclub over the weekend. The case has jeopardized his career with the NFL champions, angered the mayor of New York and raised the strong possibility the wide receiver might land in jail.
Meanwhile, police were searching for more answers from Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce and the hospital that treated Burress. Pierce was with Buress at the club, and police want to know what the linebacker did moments after the shooting and whether he helped cover up what happened.
