Joseph Randle's status with the Cowboys questionable after arrest

Joseph Randle finds himself in trouble with the law for the second time in four months, cited for marijuana possession on Tuesday. Police were able to find the marijuana when on a call for a dispute between a woman and Randle in a hotel in Wichita, KS and one of his associates that had left the hotel room supposedly had a gun with him. Randle was arrested for shoplifting in October and is becoming an issue for the Cowboys with his legal transgressions (Dallas-Forth Worth Star-Telegram)

Fantasy Impact:

Randle had a massive opportunity with the Cowboys, one that will probably disappear with this issue. DeMarco Murray may not re-sign with the Cowboys and, after a 2014 season where Randle averaged 6.7 yards per carry, he would have fit nicely as the starting RB. The Cowboys were still considering drafting or signing another RB, as well as assessing in house options like Ryan Williams, but Randle would have been as good of an option as any. As this situation develops more, Randle's fantasy value will be amended.
