New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress has been accidentally shot in the leg at a nightclub, it was reported Saturday.
ESPN.com and Fox Sports.com said the wound was not life threatening. It was not clear at what club the shooting took place. The Fox Web site said Burress spent the night in the hospital.
"I don't have anything for you at this stage," Giants spokesman Pat Hanlon told The Associated Press from Giants Stadium.
Phones calls to Burress' home and his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, were not immediately returned.
Burress injured a hamstring two weeks ago against the Baltimore Ravens. The Giants said Friday he would not play Sunday against the Redskins in Washington.
Earlier this season, the 31-year-old receiver was suspended for a game and fined $117,500 for missing a team meeting and failing to notify the team of his absence. He said he had a family emergency.
He also was fined $45,000 by the NFL for his conduct during a game against 49ers in October when he abused an official and tossed a ball into the stands .
Burress caught the winning pass in the Giants' Super Bowl win over the New England Patriots. He signed a five-year, $35 million contract hours before the season opened in September.

Actually, scratch that, because I just read my new favorite part. The New York Post says that when Burress finally went to the hospital, he gave the fake name "Harris Smith" and told doctors he'd been shot at an Applebee's. Getting shot an Applebee's was the lie he made up to cover his crime. Somehow after 90 minutes of deliberation that seemed like a plausible alibi. This tale will be the gift that keeps on giving.

I'm guessing he loses style points with his gangsta buddies for shooting himself.

He's done with the Giants.Why can you bring a gun to a club as long as its unloaded?Seems to me you can hide bullets in your pocket.

I can tell you with 100% truth that I would have turned around and punched that dude in the face....
I know for a fact I would have been buzzed up and that would have pissed me off.
