SANTA CLARA — Reuben Foster moved from drill to drill Wednesday with familiar fluidity — and a reputation to repair.

It was a contrasting sight from watching Foster go in and out of a San Jose courtroom the past two months, a saga in which domestic-violence charges got dropped last week and all that remains is a misdemeanor weapons charge.

The 49ers are thrilled to have Foster back with them, even if he’s currently limited to work on the outskirts of their practice field while revving up his conditioning to eventually join team drills.
