The
Cowboys have another off-the-field issue on their hands.
Joseph Randle is facing a one- or two-game suspension for violating the league's personal-conduct policy due to an
offseason arrest, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday, per sources informed of the process.
ESPN first reported the story.
Here's Rapoport's report in full:
"
Cowboys running back
Joseph Randle was deemed to have violated the NFL's personal-conduct policy for a recent arrest in Wichita, Kansas. He received the report (Wednesday), which was part of the reason he exited the
Cowboys facility. The charges were dropped, but the league kept investigating. He faces a one- or two-game suspension (not a six-game suspension because it's not domestic violence related), or he could be potentially fined. The main offense is firearm related. The NFL and NFL Players Association are in discussions now about a potential settlement to Randle's issue."
Randle was arrested for unlawful possession of marijuana in his hometown of Wichita back in February. At the time, the Wichita Police Department told NFL Media that officers were contacted by a 22-year-old female who reported a disturbance with a 23-year-old male. There was a report of a handgun at the scene, but responding officers did not find a weapon, nor did they find injuries sustained by the female.
