Foster’s suspension and fine stem from a weapons offense and misdemeanor drug offense.
According to NFL.com reporter Herbie Teope, Foster pleaded no contest to the weapon charge. His drug charge was dismissed after the 49ers linebacker completed a diversion program.
Foster will miss the first two games of the 2018 regular season, missing games against the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions.
