Denver Broncos Running Back Correll Buckhalter is denying having any involvment with an alledged drug dealer who is currently on trial in Pennsylvania.
The drug dealer told a prosecutor in a suburban Philadelphia town that he had sold drugs to Buckhalter and other athletes.
The allegations made by the drug dealer caught both Buckhalter and his agent J.R. Rickert off guard.
“First of all, this news caught both Correll and me by surprise this morning,” Rickert said to the Assosciated Press.
Rickert said when he talked to Buckhalter he told him “there is absolutely no validity to the allegation that was made. He did not purchase drugs from this indiviual or speak to him on the phone.”
Buckhalter signed a 4-year, $ 10 million dollar contract with the Broncos this offseason after playing with the Philadelphia Eagles since 2001.
Buckhalter was arrested but not charged his rookie season with the Eagles for possesion of Marijuana.
