Report: With Reuben Foster out, 49ers work out two linebackers

With Reuben Foster out of action for an undetermined amount of time with a high ankle sprain, the 49ers reportedly brought in two linebackers for a workout Tuesday.

ESPN’s Field Yates reported Tuesday afternoon that Sean Spence and Donald Butler were brought in by the team.

Butler, 28, has played 85 games over six seasons. Spence, 27, played 46 games in the first four years of his NFL career, most recently playing 15 games for Tennessee in 2016. Spence, who had three sacks and 35 tackles last season with the Titans, was cut by the Indianapolis Colts on Sept.
