Summary

Wide Receiver Rank: #104All Players: #287

Burress was signed by the Steelers late in the season and served a reserve role with the team, getting little work in the passing game. He caught three passes in four games. Burress has 654 yards the last two seasons. He turns 36 shortly before the season starts, so his days of starting are about over. He is expected to serve a depth role with the team. He has four 1,000-yard seasons as a pro but hasn't hit that mark since 2007. Burress still is a big receiver that can make the tough catch in traffic but lacks the speed to separate and can't be counted on for a huge role anymore.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Burress could get more chances from day one but isn't going to get enough consistent work to be a big help to fantasy teams. He might get 400 or so yards with a few touchdowns.

Dec 08 10:13 am

Pittsburgh Steelers WR Plaxico Burress is not expected to be active for the team's Week 14 game with WR Jerricho Cotchery (rib) returning from a rib injury. Burress said he would not be a distraction if he does not play. 'Like I told the guys upstairs, I am willing to go out and fulfill whatever role is presented to me, and I stand by that,' Burress said. 'Whenever they put me in the game, I want to answer the call.' Burress has yet to make a catch since joining the team. He's been targeted only two times and has played only 12 of 132 snaps.
