Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle reportedly was arrested for shoplifting at a Dallas-area mall on Monday night.
Store employees at Dillard’s in Frisco, Texas detained Randle, per the Dallas Morning News, and he later was charged with theft, a Class B misdemeanor. The item stolen is not known, but it allegedly was valued between $50 and $500.

Randle, a fifth-round pick in 2013 out of Oklahoma State, was released from Frisco City Jail Tuesday morning after posting bond.
This has to really annoy the Cowboys after a massive victory Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks in which Randle played a key role, rushing for 52 yards on five carries — including a 38-yarder — against a top defense.
If the Cowboys ever are serious about reducing the heroic workload of DeMarco Murray, one of the league's MVP candidates who has 43 more carries than any NFL back right now, they're going to have to rely on a player such as Randle to help do so.
