Former Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle was arrest outside of a Kansas casino Tuesday night after allegedly assaulting a police officer.
According to TMZ the 23-year-old was told to leave the casino because he appeared to be too drunk. As Randle was leaving, he allegedly assaulted a security officer.
He was ultimately taken into custody and transported to a nearby jail on several charges — including felony criminal threats, misdemeanor assault of a law enforcement officer, interference with a law enforcement officer, battery, disorderly conduct and criminal trespass.
This is just another incident in the long list of problems that has plagued the former Oklahoma State running back.
Randle was benched in favor of Darren McFadden for his poor performance on the field. He was later hit with a four-game suspension by the NFL for violation of the personal conduct policy after he allegedly pointed a gun at his girlfriend in February. Soon after the Cowboys cut Randle from the team.
Owner Jerry Jones feared for Randle’s mental health.
“I’m always concerned as to any issues regarding the [mental] health of a player,” Jones said, per ESPN’s Todd Archer. “It’s a lot more serious than the football [injury].”
Randle’s bail has been posted at $25,000.
