Ex-NFL Player Glenn Foster Dead At 31, Died In Police Custody

Former New Orleans Saints defensive lineman Glenn Foster Jr. died while in custody in Alabama after being arrested Saturday just after midnight. Jail records show Pickens was arrested Sunday in the small town of Reform, Ala. at about 12:30 p.m. on charges of reckless endangerment and resisting arrest by “attempt to elude.” Those charges were replaced at 3:16 p.m. by three counts of simple assault and one count of 3rd-degree robbery, the jail records show.

Foster, 31, was an undrafted free agent who was signed by the Saints in 2013 and played for two seasons.“No words right now. Rest Powerfully, Little Brother,” said Rep. Kam Buckner of the Illinois State House’s 26th District. “You left your mark everywhere you went. Glenn Foster, we love you bruh.”
