Burress sports Phillies hat, again

Plaxico Burress has gone Phillies again.

On his Twitter feed over the weekend, Buress posted a picture of him and his son, and Burress is wearing a current style Phillies hat.

You might recall when he left prison in Upstate New York, he was wearing an old-school Phillies hat in a move many thought orchestrated by his agent, Drew Rosenhaus.

Maybe he just likes the letter "P."

Rosenahus told SportsXtra in Miami that Burress is working out in Miami with Terelle Pryor, Donte Stallworth, Chad Ochocinco & Antonio Brown. The agent has said that Burress will be one of the top free agents on the market once teams can negotiate with players.

As we have said before, reports related to the Eagles' interest in Burress are coming from Burress camp. The Eagles have not said anything about Burress, beyond Andy Reid's recent blanket statement that Burress is a talented football player and they will look at him, as they do all free agents.

    I hope the Eagles sign him. He would be a redzone threat, a guy that will go up and get the jump ball and he would make the Eagles have the best WR's in the NFL. Sign him Eagles!!!!!!!!!!

    Just another ploy by Drew the slimy shrew to try and get something started with anybody.....He is too old...and unless he will accpet almost no money and a one year deal who cares.....EAGLE dollars need to go to the defense and the offensive line...

    Amazing so much news for a criminal in a Phillies hat. Awesome in depth reporting. Hacks in this town are really going all out.

    If he wears a Pirates hat one day then the 'he likes the letter P' theory might be true; since they have few fans.

    Who else remembers this slimeball blowing off the Eagles in pre draft interviews the year they drafted Corey Simon, I'm sure Reid remembers. On a side note, This dude got a major RAW deal!

    I also wore a Phillies hat this weekend and yet, I do not plan to sign with the Eagles. But maybe if they called I would talk to them.

    Plax would be a good pick up if he didn't spend the last two years in the slammer. Just like Vick he will need this year to get back in football shape,so you can pretty much write this year off.

    You folks kill me acting like sports is some sort of home for Monks. Balers ball and that's all there is to it. If this cat is in good shape and doesn't hurt us financially, we would be stupid not to sign him. Lawrence Taylor was a miscreant since day 1 in the league. And he's better than any Eagles player ever! Players get paid to play and produce. Work out your childhood fantasies on your own time.

    Man paid his debt, he'd provide a missing red-zone threat and give Vick yet another weapon. Unless we've got something better, I say sign him. I'll be 50 in January. The Eagles have never won a championship in my life-time. I'd like to see one before I die, if this move gets them closer, go for it.

    Dear lord! Today I don't care is Plax wears an Eagles jersey over a sunshine yellow tutu. If the lock out ends, if the front office of the Eagles are interested, if we have a contract we can live with and still afford some defensive help, maybe, just maybe I will jump on the "Let's Get Plax" bandwagon for 10 minutes or so.
    unbelieveable!
