Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Burress' agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said two teams have called to express interest in Burress, but Rosenhaus declined to disclose the teams. The New York Jets are reportedly the other team with some interest. Jets owner Woody Johnson told the New York Daily News that he would not impede the signing of Burress if general manager Mike Tannenbaum were to try and sign him. As NFL.com's Steve Wyche notes, Burress' legal situation -- and likely further punishment from the NFL -- will be a major factor in determining whether he will be signed and will play this season.
