PHILADELPHIA -- Washington Redskins team president Bruce Allen said the team conducted its own investigation into linebacker Reuben Foster, leading them to feel more secure there's more to his story than has been reported, according to Monday Night Football's Lisa Salters.
Allen said after researching Foster's incident in Tampa -- he was arrested for domestic violence on Nov. 25 -- they "heard a side of the story that is different."
The Redskins claimed Foster three days after he was arrested and two days after he was released by the San Francisco 49ers. It led to intense criticism and questions about why they would claim him rather than waiting to see how the legal proceedings unfolded.
