Santana Moss was treated by Dr. Anthony Galea, who is being charged with smuggling muscle-building drugs into the U.S., according to the Buffalo News.

That's the bad news. The good news for Moss is that he won't face any criminal charges. Like the other athletes in this case, he's being used as a witness against Galea, not a target. Moss used Galea while treating an injury last September. Galea is accused of illegally distributing HGH, among other things. It remains to be seen if the NFL will review the case for possible disciple against Moss. May. 20 - 8:34 am et

Report: Moss got HGH from doctor

Washington Redskins receiver Santana Moss received human growth hormone from Anthony Galea, the Canadian doctor who is charged with providing illegal drugs to professional players, The Washington Post reported, citing an unnamed source.

The Buffalo News was first to report that Moss was a patient of Galea.

Galea is accused of smuggling, unlawful distribution of human growth hormone and unlawfully treating professional athletes. On Wednesday, a Canadian court document revealed that Galea made multiple trips to New York City, Boston, Cleveland and other U.S. cities to meet with professional athletes.

Moss is not in danger of being charged in the case, however.

"At this juncture, any of the persons who are alleged to have used these substances are considered witnesses, and not targets, of this investigation," William J. Hochul Jr., the U.S. attorney in Buffalo, told The Buffalo News.

Mark J. Mahoney, one of Galea's attorneys, said his client did nothing wrong.

"Officials of the NFL and other sports organizations can sleep soundly tonight, because there is nothing he did with these athletes to help them with performance enhancement," Mahoney told the Buffalo News on Wednesday.

"[Galea] strictly provided treatment for injuries. If any athlete got [HGH], it was injected directly into injured tissue, in very small amounts, for purposes of healing," Mahoney told the newspaper.

According to an affidavit, Galea's assistant said a professional football player from Washington called to request a session with Galea at a Washington-area hotel last September.

The New York Times on Tuesday reported that the player, who it didn't name, was a member of the Redskins.

When contacted Wednesday by the Washington Post about allegations involving an unnamed Redskins player, Moss tried to keep the topic on football.

"I'll talk about football. I don't know about nothing else," Moss told the newspaper. "I ain't got nothing to do with nothing that ain't about me."

Moss is currently rehabbing from minor offseason knee surgery.

Coach Mike Shanahan said Wednesday that the team hasn't been contacted about the investigation into Galea's activities.

Asked if he knew the identity of the Redskins player who was supposedly involved, the coach said: "I don't know anything about it."

"A doctor comes to town and has supposedly seen a player," Shanahan said. "The NFL's on top of all those things, and if there's any validity to it, they will contact me and contact our organization, which they have not done."

On Wednesday, Redskins defensive end Phillip Daniels said he hopes he doesn't find out who the identity of the unnamed Redskins player.

"I hope the details don't come out," Daniels said. "I don't want to know. I don't want to have to look at my partner and say 'You were doing that illegally all this time?' I hope they just tear the papers up and just go to him privately and do it that way."

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

The rarely employed quadruple negative; quite a remarkable bit of prose. Also note the inverted parallelism in the second clause. A work of art.
