Below is an official statement from Foster:
Foster was claimed by Washington one day after the 49ers released the former first-round draft pick. He was also arrested in Los Gatos in Feb. 2018 for allegedly hitting the same woman, Elissa Ennis, who accused him of doing so later that year Tampa.
The charges stemming from the February incident against Foster were dropped after Ennis, under oath, testified at the preliminary hearing that she lied about her accusations against him.

In less than two seasons with the 49ers, Foster played in 16 games. He recorded 101 tackles.
Washington paid Foster $257,350 over the final five weeks of last season even though he was unable to practice or attend games while on the Commissioner’s Exempt list.
The NFL’s fine for the 2019 season will cost Foster a total of $151,134 in salary.
