Just three days after a domestic violence arrest that led to his release by the San Francisco 49ers, Reuben Foster on Tuesday was claimed off waivers by the Washington Redskins.
Foster was arrested late Saturday at the 49ers’ hotel by the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s office in Florida on a charge of misdemeanor domestic violence. It was Foster’s second arrest of the year — he was charged with domestic violence against the same woman in the spring, though that was later dropped — and it violated a zero-tolerance policy the 49ers had reaffirmed after Foster’s earlier arrest.
