(Reuters) - The NFL on Tuesday suspended Joseph Randle for four games for violating the league's Personal Conduct Policy, one week after the running back was released by the Dallas Cowboys.
Randle, who is currently a free agent, will have to serve the suspension whenever he signs with another club, the NFL said.
The suspension stems from Randle's arrest last year in his hometown of Wichita, Kansas.
Randle, 23, was arrested on marijuana possession charges after police received a call from his hotel room concerning domestic violence with a weapon after an incident with the running back and his girlfriend, Dalia Jacobs.
