Former Washington Redskins and New Orleans Saints running back George Rogers, who was implicated in a drug scandal in 1982 and later underwent treatment at a rehabilitation center, was arrested on cocaine charges during a weekend raid, authorities in Columbia, S.C., said.

Rogers, who won the 1980 Heisman Trophy while at South Carolina, still had traces of cocaine in his right nostril when he was arrested Saturday at a northwest Columbia apartment, Richland County Sheriff Allan Sloan said.

\ In Littleton, Colo., Denver Broncos running back Bobby Humphrey pleaded guilty to driving while impaired and speeding. He was fined $508 and ordered to perform 24 hours of public service.
