It’s been a few months since former New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress pleaded guilty and was sent to jail to serve two years of imprisonment, and his former coach Tom Coughlin still remembers him and recently expressed that he felt sad for what happened to the ex-NFL receiver.
“It’s very sad," Coughlin said today at the NFL annual league meetings. "I’m hoping that he has an opportunity to come home quickly. I hope he’s paid his dues and I hope all of those things have been … he does have a young boy and a young daughter. He’s needed. I just think that’s a real sad event that took place, not that it isn’t deserved, but when you think about a young guy with a young family been away this long, I’m hoping he comes out a better person and has the ability to see all that you have to in terms of doing the right things and making the right choices.”
Coughlin also said that he has considered corresponding with Burress, but actually it was Burress’ former teammate, defensive end Michael Strahan has ever visited him in prison. Whatsoever, Coughlin did said something good of the prisoner- he believes that Burress will be able to wear back the NFL jersey of a team but it is not necessarily to be the Giants.
