The Facts:
According to pool reporter John Clayton of ESPN, Burress, who didn't practice Wednesday because of his chronic right ankle injury, missed Thursday's workout because of swelling and soreness in his left knee. As he did Wednesday, Burress dressed for practice, loosened up and tried to run a few routes and catch a few passes in the first few minutes.

Burress shut it down early Thursday and spent the remainder of the one-hour-50-minute practice in the training room receiving treatment. "He has an ankle that always has been a problem, but he also has some issues with a knee that off and on in the past has bothered him," HC Tom Coughlin said. "That's the thing right now. Between the two of them, that's why he's not working. He comes out and tries to go and can't go." Coughlin said he's hopeful Burress will feel better for Friday's practice. A team source told ESPN's Ed Werder that Burress does not expect to be limited Sunday even though his absence Thursday means he has missed both of the team's Arizona practice sessions for the Super Bowl.
