49ers’ Reuben Foster pleads no contest; could face multigame suspension

Reuben Foster’s last legal issue has been resolved.

On Wednesday, the 49ers’ inside linebacker pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor weapons charge stemming from his arrest in Los Gatos in February. Foster will perform 232 hours of community service and will face two years of probation during which he is barred from possessing guns, a source said.

The gun charge was part of Foster’s domestic-violence arrest in which two felony domestic violence charges were dropped after his ex-girlfriend, Elissa Ennis, testified that she lied about Foster abusing her. Foster also recently had a misdemeanor marijuana possession charge dropped stemming from his arrest in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
