Simms: Plax'll be back

BasX · Mar 1, 2009

Phil Simms believes Plaxico Burress will return as a Giant if he somehow avoids jail.

"If the court case goes great, he'll be a member of the New York Giants," Simms said.

Why is that?

"Because I think the players like him, and I think the organization likes him too," Simms told The Post at a signing at Steiner Sports in New Rochelle before regaling patrons at a meet-and-greet at Mo's New York Grill with the other two Giants Super Bowl MVPs, Ottis Anderson and Eli Manning.

"Guys make mistakes, but you realize down deep they got good hearts and they're a good person, and I think that's how everybody feels about Plaxico Burress," Simms added. "I don't know him. . . . I'm saying all this and judging it from what I read and just watching the body language when he plays football and how the players react to him. You can tell: They like him. That's enough for me. And I have never had any New York Giant player - off the record or anything else - ever say anything to me, negative about Plaxico Burress."

Manning, Burress' teammate, agreed.

"Guys would like to have him back, hoping that he will get on the right track, and not be a distraction, and kinda have everything in order and ready to be a part of the team, and be there and do everything he can to help us win games," Manning said. "
