Wide receiver Rueben Randle has spent the last couple of months getting used to life with the Eagles, but that’s going to be on hold for a bit after his offseason took a turn to the operating room.

Randle is recovering after having surgery to remove his gallbladder earlier this week. The procedure typically doesn’t lead to a long recovery period, although the demands of playing professional football are different than those of most other jobs when it comes to returning to work after a surgical procedure.

The Eagles website suggests Randle may not return to the field until training camp, when he would resume a push to earn snaps alongside Jordan Matthews and Nelson Agholor in the Eagles offense. Josh Huff and Chris Givens will likely see more reps in practice until Randle gets the green light to pick up where he left off.

Randle signed a one-year deal with the Eagles in March after spending the first four years of his career with the Giants.
