SUPPLEMENT­AL DRAFT: GIANTS, ’SKINS SELECT

- — The Associated Press

YORK» The Giants spent a NEW

2019 third-round draft pick on Western Michigan cornerback Sam Beal, and the Redskins 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.

“Pacman” attacked.

Police said former Bengals cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones was attacked during a run-in with a facility-service employee at the airport in Atlanta.

Atlanta Police spokesman Jarius Daugherty said Jones confronted ABM Industries employee Frank Ragin after Ragin made a “gesture” toward the football player Tuesday night at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Internatio­nal Airport. Police say words were exchanged before Ragin struck Jones with a closed fist, causing a cut to Jones’ face.

Cellphone video footage shows that Jones and Ragin traded several punches with each other. Jones ultimately knocked Ragin down to the ground with a punch to the face then hit the employee one more time before a man broke up the fight.

Daugherty says that at some point during the fight, Ragin ended up hitting a woman who was with Jones, injuring her hand. He said Ragin was the aggressor and Jones defended himself.

Ragin was arrested on two counts of battery and taken to a nearby hospital to be treated for injuries.
