The ex-girlfriend of San Francisco 49ers linebacker Reuben Foster, who had accused him of domestic violence, has recanted her statement in court. Shortly thereafter, Foster’s new teammate, Richard Sherman, took to Twitter to weigh in on the matter in an indirect, but clear way.
Funny how people rush to judgement so quickly they can’t accept when the truth comes out so they sensationalize a lie and trivialize the truth.

In light of Thursday’s testimony, something like this from Sherman was always likely. Sherman has supported Foster since early in the process. He attended an early court appearance of Foster’s.
One could only guess that Sherman will have more to say if more is revealed, and if and when any NFL discipline comes Foster’s way.
