There was a highlight catch and even a touchdown throw from Rueben Randle at Eagles camp this summer. It seemed as if the Eagles had found quite the free-agency steal in the bargain bin … and then Randle played a game.

According to those who closely watched Randle’s preseason performance against the Buccaneers, he was largely disinterested and his play reflected that.

Randle was a constant disappointment in his four years with the Giants, failing to live up to the expectations after being taken in the second round of the 2012 draft. The Giants moved on from Randle, opting not to re-sign him this offseason and watching him go to an NFC East rival on a one-year, $1 million deal.

“Maybe we will get a better Rueben Randle during the regular season,” former Eagles running back Brian Westbrook said in a radio interview on The Fanatic. “From what I saw from him last night, he looked slow. He looked like he didn’t have any interest. He lacked explosion. He looked like he didn’t really want to catch the football.

“You can’t come onto a new team being a free-agent acquisition for a team that needs you and look the way he did in that game. This football team needs Randle to produce.”

The Eagles may share that concern. On Tuesday morning, Philadelphia acquired receiver Dorial Green-Beckham from the Titans in exchange for backup offensive lineman Dennis Kelly. The con2015 second-round pick could bump Randle down the depth chart.
