The Facts:
Coming off a torn rotator cuff suffered last August, Burress said the recovery time from the injury is about seven to eight months, putting him on track to be ready for training camp. He is continuing to make progress on his rehab, going from not being able to do any upper body work in January to now working on his range of motion. “I am rehabbing every day and will see how it feels when the offseason program starts," Burress said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Besides the injury, there is one more obstacle in Burress’ way. He will soon become an unrestricted free agent, and he is hoping to have another shot and not let the injury end things for him. “I am going to treat it as I am coming back to play,” said Burress. “I am going to keep that mindset until they tell me otherwise. I am going to keep going until I can’t go anymore. ..." Burress will turn 37 this August. He'll likely get a chance to play -- whether it's Pittsburgh or elsewhere, but fantasy owners shouldn't get too excited.
