Statement by an NFL Spokesperson:
Reuben Foster of the San Francisco 49ers has been fined and suspended without pay for the first two games of the 2018 regular season for violating the NFL's Conduct and Substances of Abuse policies. The violations stem from a weapons offense and a misdemeanor drug offense, both of which were resolved earlier this year.
Foster will be eligible to return to the 49ers' active roster on Monday, September 17, following the team's September 16 game against the Detroit Lions.
Foster is eligible to participate in all preseason practices and games.
San Francisco 49ers LB Reuben Foster:
"I accept the League's decision and am sorry that my mistakes have hurt my team. I have a responsibility to the 49ers, our fans and our community, and I am committed to learning from this situation and making better choices in the future. The support I have received over the last five months has been humbling, and I do not take it for granted."
San Francisco 49ers General Manager John Lynch:
"Our organization understands and supports the League's decision. Although we are disappointed that Reuben will not be with our team for the first two games of the season, we will continue to work with him on making better decisions and eliminating unnecessary distractions. We are encouraged to see Reuben take responsibility for his mistakes, and hopeful that he has learned from them as well."

It sucks losing this guy for any amount of games, but it could have been much worse. Hopefully he has learned from this ordeal and can put this behind him. We need him on the field, dude has a bright future.

Should still appeal it.
Never saw him getting more, would be suicide for the NFL to try and punish him for a false allegation.
