a previous item. ... Burress made his debut for the Jets in 11-on-11 team drills Sunday after being limited to being mostly a spectator since he signed a week ago. He rolled his left ankle running routes with Santonio Holmes last Wednesday, and had only been doing light work during the morning walkthroughs.

Burress lined up on the practice field, ran a route and watched as a pass to him from Mark Sanchez fell incomplete. The plan was for Burress to go through individual work but he managed to get a couple of plays with the first-team offense. "Rex basically told me, `Hey, this is a good start and we don’t want any setbacks,’" Burress said. "I would have kept on going. It’s my first time out there in a couple of years and it just felt good to kind of get back in a groove. But Rex [Ryan] shut me down.” Burress said he was on the field for team drills for “one or two plays” and hopes that number increases during the next few practices.
