San Francisco 49ers linebacker Reuben Foster has been suspended for two games following a drug and weapons offense Brian Allen Jersey Rams , according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.49ers鈥?LB Reuben Foster fined and suspended without pay for the first two games of the 2018 regular season for violating the NFL鈥檚 Conduct and Substances of Abuse policies.— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) July 3, 2018After serving a two-game suspension, 49ers鈥?LB Reuben Foster will be eligible to return to active roster on Monday, September 17, following the team鈥檚 September 16 game against the Detroit Lions.— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) July 3, 2018Foster was arrested by police in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama in January for possessing marijuana. He was arrested in February for weapon possession and allegedly assaulting his girlfriend. However, she later said that Foster never hit or threatened her, and later called the story a "money scheme."Foster avoided potential suspension by the NFL following his girlfriend's statement, but the weapons and marijuana charge will keep him out for the first two games of 2018, though he has the choice to appeal the suspension.Per the 49ers' official website Cheap Braden Smith Jersey , Foster is still allowed to compete in practices and preseason games. Barring an overturned suspension, Foster will miss the team's Week 1 and 2 games against the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions, respectively.Drafted with the 31st pick by the 49ers in 2017, Foster was one of the NFL's top rookies, earning an impressive 90.7 grade from Pro Football Focus. The 49ers won their last five games in 2017, thanks to the emergence of quarterback, Jimmy Garoppolo. With the signings of Pro Bowl cornerback Richard Sherman and standout running back Jerick McKinnon, the 49ers are expected to be a playoff contender in 2018. Foster's absence for the first two games will hurt, so the defense must step up until he returns.With Garoppolo winning his first seven NFL starts (he won the first two with the New England Patriots), expectations are higher for the 49ers, who have registered three consecutive losing seasons.Other notable NFL players who've been suspended in the 2018 offseason include Julian Edelman (four games www.titansauthorizedshops.com/authentic-luke-falk-jersey , he appealed it last week), Jameis Winston (three games), Mark Ingram (four games), and Vontaze Burfict (four games). — Kenny Vaccaro says he believes fellow safety Eric Reid should be on a team playing in the NFL. Needing a job himself, the veteran is very happy that the Tennessee Titans signed him instead.
Vaccaro signed a one-year deal with the Titans on Saturday morning and was with them for individual drills at practice at Nissan Stadium hours later. He had been waiting for a team to sign him since his contract with New Orleans expired in March.
“This has been a long time coming for me,” Vaccaro said. “I was waiting on the right opportunity. I was fortunate that one opened up here and that we could get a deal done. I’m ready to work.”
The Titans also signed safety Jason Thompson after placing safety Johnathan Cyprien on injured reserve Friday with a torn left ACL.
Reid, who has been looking for a job since March himself, remains unsigned since his own rookie contract expired in March with the San Francisco 49ers. He filed a claim this spring after visiting with Cincinnati, arguing he was unsigned as a result of collusion by NFL owners over his protests of police brutality and racial inequality by kneeling during the national anthem.
“He’s a great man,” Vaccaro said of Reid. “He’s a good family man, and a great dude. He needs to be on a team. He’ll get on a team. I believe in him.”
Reid was headed to Nashville to work out for the Titans on Friday but reportedly had flight issues. Titans coach Mike Vrabel said he’d leave questions on what happened to Reid’s workout to Reid and his agent and general manager Jon Robinson.
“Unfortunately Will Hernandez Jersey Giants , I wasn’t able to see him,” Vrabel said. “So that’s really all I can comment on. I’ll let Eric and his camp comment, and I’ll let Jon take care of it on our end.”
The 6-foot Vaccaro spent the past five years as a starter with New Orleans, starting 67 games with eight interceptions, 7 1/2 sacks and four forced fumbles. The Saints drafted him 15th overall in 2013 out of Texas. Vrabel said Vaccaro didn’t look at times last year like the safety had earlier in his career but had a great workout for the Titans.
“So what we expect is that he’s a pro, and he comes in and learns what to do quickly,” Vrabel said. “We’ll work him in there and see where he can help us. He’s made plays in the National Football League, and it seems like he’s starting off with a great attitude.”
Vaccaro said he’s a competitive person who knows he has to catch up with his new teammates in a secondary featuring All-Pro safety Kevin Byard and cornerbacks Malcolm Butler, Logan Ryan and Adoree Jackson.
“There’s a lot of good players here,” Vaccaro said. “They’re loaded. Dean Pees’ defense, the stuff we’re going to run Saints Elite Jerseys , it’s just a good fit. I’ve got a good feeling about it. I haven’t got to practice yet. I did a lot of different things at NOLA — nickel, dime, safety, back deep at some point, I’ve been in every situation.”
Thompson has spent time with New England, Chicago, Seattle and Dallas since coming into the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of Utah in 2017.
