Reuben Foster cleared for start of training camp

Reuben Foster

The San Francisco 49ers will be able to get a full look at first-round pick Reuben Foster when camp opens up on Friday.

Niners head coach Kyle Shanahan said Thursday that Foster has been cleared to participate in training camp.

Foster was initially expected to be a potential top-five pick in the draft, but he slid to No. 31 in large part due to injury concerns about his shoulder. Foster underwent shoulder surgery earlier this year but seems to be on schedule with his recovery. Many teams passed on him because they thought he would need a second surgery and are concerned about his long-term health.

Foster was a star linebacker during his college career at Alabama, and the Niners are expecting him to be a major asset on defense.
