Giants release sparks Jets roster move for Taylor
One day after being cut by their arch rivals the New York Giants, the Jets added running back Taylor to their roster as Kenny Lewis of Virginia Tech was placed on injured reserve. In boxing, Michael Spinks will defend the WBA light heavyweight title against Venzell Johnson on November 7 in Atlantic City, promoter Butch Lewis said. Bobby Unser challenged the Indianapolis 500 finish, seeking to overturn Mario Andretti’s victory. USAC expects a written decision from hearing chair Edwin Bender, with an official announcement not expected before Thursday.
