INDIANAPOLIS — Redskins linebacker Reuben Foster remains on the NFL’s Commissioner Exempt list months after his charges for a domestic violence arrest were dropped.

While the Redskins are still waiting to see if Foster will be suspended in 2019, team president Bruce Allen said Friday that “it’s time” for the linebacker to play football.

“We consider him strongly,” Allen said when asked how Foster fits in the team’s evaluation at inside linebacker. “We’ll see what happens. But no, he’s on the roster. He hasn’t played yet and he has to abide by all of our rules, but we’re hoping for him and us that he’s able to play.
