Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle reportedly up and left the team’s facility Wednesday when he learned that he had lost his starting job.
Randle, who has been nursing a strained oblique, worked on the side with an athletic trainer at practice before disappearing and skipping his scheduled treatment, according to David Moore of The Dallas Morning News. Randle was said to be upset after learning that Darren McFadden has been named the Cowboys’ new No. 1 back.
Multiple sources said Randle left Valley Ranch to meet with people he trusted to help him clear his head and talk through what happened.
