 Foster when no one else was willing to — claiming him off waivers shortly after he was charged with domestic violence.But those charges were dropped in January Derrius Guice Jersey , and now he has avoided suspension from the league, but the team offered its firm words Friday.“We have been very clear with Reuben that his past does not have to determine his future — but the responsibility is squarely on him to change,” team president Bruce Allen said, via J.P. Finlay of NBCSportsWashington.com.For his part, Foster sounds willing to accept that, saying he was “grateful” for a second chance.“I appreciate the support I have received from the league, my team Geron Christian Jersey , and my union to help me succeed,” Foster said in a statement from the team. I want to thank Commissioner [Roger] Goodell for the time that he has spent with me and for his understanding of me as a person. I accept the NFL’s decision and want to say that I am truly sorry for my past actions and the people who may have been hurt by them. Going forward, I will follow the plan outlined for me and work hard to earn back the trust of my teammates, the NFL, NFL fans, and the community. I know that my success is all up to me, and I am committed to not letting you down.”If he can stay on the field Troy Apke Jersey , he offers Washington a chance at immediate impact, though many will still consider the team’s decision a a cynical one considering his checkered past. Heading into the offseason, there was some question about whether defensive end Trent Murphy would remain with the Bills for a second season.Murphy didn’t produce much after signing a three-year deal with Buffalo as a free agent, although that probably shouldn’t have been a huge surprise. Murphy tore his ACL and MCL while with Washington in 2017 and the extended recovery time for those injuries left him at less than 100 percent when the regular season rolled around.Whispers that he’d be moving on never amounted to anything, though. The Bills held onto Murphy past the March date when a portion of his salary was guaranteed and defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier said the team saw signs that Murphy will regain his effectiveness this year.“I’ve told him a few different times as we’ve gone through some drills here in OTAs how different he looks,” Frazier said, via the . “Of course Zach Brown Jersey , last year at this time he was coming off the injury and the surgery and really kind of feeling his way. The confidence, the movement, everything looks so much better. We’re hoping that continues as we get farther along, but he’s a different player.”The Bills added players at many positions this offseason, but stood pat with Murphy, Jerry Hughes and Shaq Lawson as their edge rushers. A rebound from Murphy would make that decision pay off.
