If nothing else, Reuben Foster’s arrest for marijuana possession Friday night probably cost him some security.
The 49ers’ inside linebacker arrived in the NFL with off-the-field concerns that prompted his new employer to place at least one notable provision in his contract: He will forfeit his $2.5 million of salary guarantees in the final three of his deal (2018-2020) if he is fined under the league’s drug policies, CBS Sports’ Joel Corry reported.
Foster was arrested in Tuscaloosa, Ala., for second-degree possession, which is a Class A misdemeanor in the state. Last year, at the NFL combine, he failed a drug test for submitting a diluted sample.
