Former Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle was reportedly arrested for rape early Friday morning in Kansas, according to TMZ Sports. Details surrounding the arrest remain scarce, but TMZ reports jail records in Sedgwick County, Kansas show the 26-year-old was booked for rape at 3:43 AM on September 7 and he's being held without bond at a local detention center.
Randle has been in trouble with the law numerous times since he broke into the NFL in 2013, including a stint where he was arrested six times in a 17-month span. During that time period, while he was still a member of the Cowboys, he was booked for stealing underwear and cologne from a department store.
Randle, who has spent most of the past two years in jail, had been convicted of aggravated burglary, aggravated battery, criminal threat and marijuana possession after he allegedly hit three people with a car after being asked to leave a housewarming party, according to Pro Football Talk. In June, a Kansas judge accepted the recommendation of Randle's attorneys and gave him five years probation stemming from that incident.
The Cowboys selected Randle in the fifth round of the 2013 NFL Draft and he was named the starting back during the 2015 season, but was waived later that year and never played in the league again.
