Dallas Cowboys running back and Wichita native Joseph Randle was arrested by Frisco, Texas police Monday night on suspicion of shoplifting “a bottle of cologne and underwear,” according to a source. Officer Chad Laprelle, a spokesman for the Frisco police department, confirmed that Randle was arrested on suspicion of a Class B misdemeanor for a theft between $50-$500. Randle, 22, was allegedly caught stealing via video surveillance.
The Cowboys have not commented on the incident, nor has Randle or his agents.
Randle, who joined the Cowboys as a fifth-round pick in 2013 out of Oklahoma State, signed a four-year, $2.3 million rookie contract, including a $188,820 signing bonus. His base salary this season is $495,000.
Randle was transported to the Frisco city jail and was released after posting bond. The arrest came one day after Randle enjoyed a breakout game in the Cowboys’ 30-23 victory against the Seattle Seahawks.
He rushed five times for 52 yards, including a 38-yard scamper in the first quarter to set the tone against Seattle’s top-ranked run defense. Randle also had a key tackle on special teams. Now the question is how this arrest will affect his status with the Cowboys.The team recently instituted a zero tolerance police regarding charges and arrests for crimes, including domestic violence.
Randle is the first Cowboys player to be arrested this season. Randle played at Wichita Southeast High before going to Oklahoma State for his college career.
He just wanted some no tag MJ underwear.

Perfect post combined with your screen name.
The Dallas Morning News has taken the time to summarize a USAToday data base that lists NFL players arrested since 2000. Surprisingly Dallas with 14 is one of the lowest in the league.
But if it’s Dallas it gets more attention so people think Dallas is the worst.
Minnesota with 45 is worst.
Get me a blue pill,stat!
You can take the boy outta the ghetto, but’cha can’t take the ghetto outta the boy.
BTTT
Oh, please. These are the Dallas Cowboys we're talking about.
He was “getting it together” to be a dad to his daughter from whomever. How do sportswriters deal with this crap with a straight face?
That game really sucked for Seattle.
