The former wide receiver filed his 2013 income tax returns electronically, but his payment of $47,903 was not received, the Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office claims, according to the Times report. Burress reportedly never responded to attempts made by the Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services to contact him.
