Plaxico Burress arrived at Giants Stadium on Tuesday, one day after the star receiver was charged with illegal gun possession.
He was told by the team to be there because he is on the active roster and injured.
Burress accidentally shot himself in the right thigh at a Manhattan nightclub over the weekend. The case has jeopardized his career with the NFL champions, angered the mayor of New York and raised the strong possibility the wide receiver might land in jail.
