San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said the team has remained in communication with Reuben Foster, after the linebacker was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence on Feb. 11.
Foster was also accused of making threats, as well as suspicion of possessing an assault rifle.
Lynch said he's spoken with Foster since his arrest, but remained tight-lipped as it's an ongoing legal matter.
"We have talked with Reuben,” Lynch said, via the team's official website. "The context, in a broad sense, is our expectations for him and our expectations for all of our players. We have a high standard that we expect. I think we made that very clear with him. We remain in communication but a lot of that is going to remain private because of the ongoing legal matters and protocols that are in place."
Foster's girlfriend told police the linebacker physically dragged her during an argument. She also revealed that Foster owned numerous semiautomatic weapons.
The 23-year-old was also arrested in January for possession of marijuana and was released after posting $2,500 bond.
Foster, the 31st overall pick in the 2017 draft, recorded 72 tackles in 10 games during his rookie season. It's possible he'll be suspended by the NFL for a violation of the personal conduct policy.
