The United States Football League showed it meant business when Herschel Walker signed a contract to play in the league, and there was more business being conducted yesterday involving big-name players.
Marcus Marek, who received all-America honors as an Ohio State linebacker, said that yesterday he had signed a two-year contract with the Boston Breakers on Thursday. And John Riggins, the Super Bowl star of the Washington Redskins, was in Detroit yesterday to talk to the Michigan Panthers. Riggins is now a free agent.
In other USFL news:
Joe Gilliam, the former Pittsburgh Steeler quarterback who had hoped for a comeback with the United States Football League, has been dropped by the Denver Gold.
