Former Alabama players arrested on drug charges

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Former Alabama football star DJ Hall and walk-on Darwin Salaam have been arrested on drug charges in Tuscaloosa.

The two were arrested Wednesday at a hotel after police responded to complaints that guests were smoking marijuana in a room. Each was charged with possession of marijuana and another controlled substance, and were released on bonds of $30,000 each.

Hall was a star receiver for the Crimson Tide from 2004 through 2007. He holds several school records and is the only Alabama receiver ever to have two 1,000-yard seasons.

Salaam was a walk-on receiver who played at Stillman College before transferring to Alabama.

A court clerk said there is no paperwork yet indicating whether either Hall or Salaam have attorneys.
