Former San Francisco 49ers linebacker Reuben Foster was claimed off waivers by the Washington Redskins, who made a point of saying he won’t play for the team unless he clears certain hurdles. The Niners said they were releasing Foster on Sunday, after he was arrested late Saturday night at the team hotel in Tampa, Florida, on a charge of misdemeanor domestic violence.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston has reached a settlement with the woman known as “Kate P” who said he groped her in her Uber vehicle. The documents, filed by her attorney John Clune in U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona on Monday, state that the “parties are in the process of finalizing a settlement agreement” and that the process will be completed in approximately 10 days. The woman alleged that in March of 2016, while waiting in a drive-thru at Los Betos restaurant in Scottsdale, Arizona, Winston “leaned toward [her] and placed his fingers between her legs and pressed them firmly against her over her yoga pants.”
