Correll Buckhalter named in drug case
Styles N. Beckles is on trial in Pennsylvania for drug charges. [Can't you just picture a drug dealer named "Styles"? I picture something like this.]
In any event, the prosecutor in the case said that Styles had sold drugs to pro athletes including RB Correll Buckhalter, who signed with the Denver Broncos this off-season. Buckhalter is expected to start for the Broncos, who have also signed J.J. Arrington and Lamont Jordan this off-season.
Through his agent, Buckhalter has denied that he is a customer of Styles.

"I spoke to Correll about it and there's no validity to it as far as he's concerned," Buchhalter's agent J.R. Rickert said. "I don't know the circumstances as to how or why he dropped his name. All I know is I asked Correll, 'Are you involved in this at all?' And he said, 'Nope, there's no validity to it.' "I don't know whether Buckhalter bought or didn't buy drugs from Styles. But considering the amount of players that have been busted for drugs in the NFL, I'm not sure that the phrase "nope, there's no validity to it" means so matter-of-factly that "nope, there's no validity to it."
