Apparently, the big time linebacker has some smooth communication skills.
On Tuesday, Alabama’s Reuben Foster met with 20 team members to take ownership on what transpired at the NFL Scouting Combine. According to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, teams came away “impressed” with how the 2016 Butkus Award winner carried himself in the apology.
