ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — Commissioner Roger Goodell says NFL staff contacted Santana Moss about the Redskins receiver’s connection to a Canadian doctor charged with smuggling and supplying human growth hormone.

Moss has told teammates he received treatments — not involving banned substances — from Dr. Anthony Galea.

A U.S. criminal complaint filed in May charged Galea with conspiracy, smuggling, unlawful distribution of HGH and introducing the unapproved drug Actovegin into interstate commerce.

On a visit to Redskins training camp Wednesday, Goodell says the NFL is “cooperating with and following very closely” the investigation.

Asked about a possible suspension for Moss, Goodell says: “I like to know the facts first.”

Goodell says he did not talk to Moss on Wednesday.
