Agent Drew Rosenhaus has said that three teams have serious interest in free-agent wideout Plaxico Burress. And Rosenhaus acknowledged during a Miami-area television appearance on Sunday night that the Dolphins aren’t one of those three teams. “I really haven’t talked to the Dolphins about it,” Rosenhaus told WSVN (via Tim Graham of ESPN.com). “They’re not one of the three teams, and I’ve kept the three teams private because they’ve asked me to.” Last week, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reported that Plaxico has told friends he would “love” to play for the Dolphins. Armando Salguero of the Herald thereafter reported that the feeling isn’t mutual. “Don’t read too much into Plax saying he’d like to play for Miami because he lives here in the offseason,” Rosenhaus said. “He loves South Florida. Who wouldn’t want to play for the Dolphins?” Burress is scheduled to be in court on June 15 on pending criminal charges that could put him away for a minimum of 3.5 years. The thinking is that no team will officially pursue Burress unless and until it is clear that he will not be required to stand trial on the charges during the 2009 season.
