The Facts:
Burress said in a radio interview earlier this week that, "no doubt about it," he wants to play for the Panthers next season. But, although Burress has received calls from other NFC South teams, the Panthers haven't called yet, he told WFNZ in Charlotte on Monday.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Burress said that NFL teams are interested in him but he hasn't found the right fit. In February, Burress had expressed a strong desire to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles, but there apparently doesn't seem to be a match between the team and receiver, as he remains unsigned. "I just want to put myself in a position to go out and have success and to make the guys around me better and obviously play with a quarterback who can really play the position," Burress said. "It's just about me picking my spots and seeing where I'm a good fit. You just look at a situation like Carolina. You can't come across a better situation than that. ..." Sadly for Burress, the Panthers have no interest. We do believe he'll get a call at some point, but from a Fantasy perspective we struggle to get too excited about his return.
