After serving 2 years in prison for shooting himself in the leg at a New York nightclub in 2008, Plaxico Burress is returning to the playing field not with the New York Giants, but with the rival New York Jets.
While he’ll be sharing a stadium with his old team, he’ll be in a new locker room.
The announcement shocked many as numerous news outlets predicted Burress would either go to the Steelers or Giants.
Burress will receive $3 million from the deal.
