New York, Washington add supplemental picks

The Washington football team and the New York Giants, both from the NFC East, elected to select players in the 2018 National Football League Supplemental Draft.

The New York Giants have spent a 2019 thirdround draft pick on Western Michigan cornerback Sam Beal, and Washington has selected Virginia Tech cornerback Adonis Alexander in the sixth round Wednesday.

New York will surrender its third-round pick in next April’s draft in Nashville, while Washington gives up a sixth-rounder.

Both players were ruled academically ineligible for the upcoming college football season and entered the supplemental draft.

Not selected were Mississippi State safety Brandon Bryant, Grand Valley State running back Martayveus Carter and Oregon State linebacker Bright Ugwoegbu.
