Former Steelers wide receiver Plaxico Burress will be released from jail in a couple days.
That doesn't mean the Steelers should actively pursue Burress once he's free and a deal between the players and owners happens.
I've seen it before.
Burress, as talented as he may be, also is wildly inconsistent. He'll also be 34 years old when a season eventually begins, not exactly his prime as a football player.
Those are just two reasons why.
And I'll give you three more: Mike Wallace, Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown. Those are three young receivers I'm impressed with.
Wallace's contributions have been evident. Sanders and Brown have a bright future in front of them. Then there's that guy who can dance a little, Hines Ward.
The Steelers are fine at receiver. There's no need for Burress to return.
