New York Giants waiting to learn severity of Burress' injury
New York Giants11/25/2008 8:42 AM The Star-Ledger reports WR Plaxico Burress underwent tests on his hamstring Monday after leaving Sunday's win over the Cardinals following the Giants' first series, coach Tom Coughlin said. Asked if he thought Burress made the injury worse by playing, Coughlin said, "I don't know. I don't think so. But we are going to have to wait and see based on today." The results were not available during Coughlin's afternoon conference call with reporters.
