    Where are you seeing anything about teammates?

    Not just teammates. Others throughout the league.

    A law enforcement source told Laurence Holmes of 670 that Hurd was one of the top drug dealers in Chicago. Police obtained a list of NFL players who were supplied drugs by Hurd and the number is “in the double digits.”
    Considering Hurd allegedly dealt drugs while in Dallas, his arrest could create problems in at least two NFL cities. And it could create the impression, at a minimum, that the NFL’s drug testing is pretty easy to get around.

    Marion Barber has to be a customer. That would explain plenty.

    Ruckus,

    May not have been in the story I linked to; must have been in another one. But there was a report indicating he had contacted several phones belonging to teammates in a "suspicious" manner.

    Time will tell, I guess.

    If it's cocaine, it's pretty easy to beat a drug test. That stuff's out of your system in a matter of two or three days, IIRC.

    If you recall correctly, it probably was cocaine.

    From what I heard on the radio this afternoon, it wasn't $700k in one shot. He wanted a supplier who could deal him $700k a *week* in perpetuity.
