Rueben Randle released by Philadelphia Eagles
Rueben Randle - Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY SportsFormer New York Giants wide receiver Rueben Randle, signed by the Philadelphia Eagles as a free agent in the offseason, was cut Sunday by the Eagles per a variety of published reports.
Randle caught five passes for the Eagles in three preseason games, totaling only 26 yards (5.2 yards per catch). His longest reception was for seven yards.
A 2012 second-round pick, Randle caught a career-high 71 passes in 2014 but never became the consistent playmaking force the Giants envisioned when they drafted him. He caught 57 passes in 2015, but the Giants made little to no effort to re-sign him during the offseason.
