WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Former Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle has pleaded not guilty to several Kansas charges.

Randle on Friday pleaded not guilty to a criminal threat charge stemming from accusations that he threatened to kill a Sedgwick County jail deputy.

The Wichita Eagle reports Randle also entered not guilty pleas to charges accusing him of backing into three people with his car and kicking in the door of a Wichita home earlier this year. And, he pleaded not guilty to a charge of interfering with law enforcement in March.

Randle, who is from Wichita, is being held on $50,000 bond. He’s scheduled for trials in all three cases September 19.

The former NFL running back was released by the Cowboys last year.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A Kansas judge has ruled there’s enough evidence to try former Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle on charges from two different cases.

KSN-TV reports that Randle was charged with aggravated battery in February in Sedgwick County. Police say he backed his car into three people while leaving a party.

Judge John Kisner said after a preliminary hearing Thursday that there is enough evidence to bind Randle over for trial in that case.

The judge also bound Randle over for trial on a count of interfering with law enforcement for dodging a warrant. Court dates weren’t set.

Kisner did not rule on whether Randle will stand trial in a third case involving a criminal threat against a Sedgwick County detention deputy.

The Cowboys released Randle last year.
