On Tuesday San Francisco 49ers T-Shirt , by declaring that the powers-that-be spoke to Foster’s former Alabama teammates who currently play for the team. On Wednesday, it became clear that 40 percent of them weren’t contacted.So what really happened?“We didn’t hold a convention,” senior V.P. of player personnel Doug Williams told The Team 980 on Thursday. “It wasn’t like we talked to all five. . . . The ones we did talk to knew him very well.”Here’s the quote from the P.R.-driven press release aimed at explaining the move to give safe harbor to a player who has been accused twice this year of domestic violence:聽“[W]e decided to investigate the situation with Reuben further by claiming his rights after candid conversations with a number of his ex-Alabama teammates and current Redskins players who were overwhelmingly supportive of us taking this chance.”Technically, the statement is true and accurate. Still San Francisco 49ers Hats , why not talk to all five? How hard would that have been? What if one of the players to whom the team didn’t speak would have said something like, “Off the record, none of this surprises me”?The fact that the team didn’t talk to all five underscores the reality that Washington simply took a blind flier on Foster, squatting on his rights and paying him more than $250 San Francisco 49ers Hoodie ,000 for dibs on his services in 2019, if/when he’s cleared to play.

The story dominated sports and non-sports news on Wednesday, showing up in morning shows and nightly news and otherwise making the league seem insensitive to the scourge of domestic violence. 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh said this week that rookie safety Marcell Harris would be off of injured reserve and playing on defense sooner rather than later and it appears Thursday night will be when that happens.Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the 49ers are activating Harris ahead of their game against the Raiders and the expectation is that he will see action in the meeting of one-win teams.Harris tore his Achilles while at the University of Florida and missed the entire 2017 season. He continued rehabbing after being selected by the 49ers in the sixth round and hurt his hamstring during training camp to set him back even more. Harris began practicing with the team two weeks ago and became eligible to play in games this week.The injury limited Harris to nine starts during his college career, but he was the Gators’ leading tackler during the 2016 season. He’ll open his 49ers career playing behind Jaquiski Tartt.
