TAMPA, Fla. -- Shortly after Reuben Foster was released from jail Sunday, an Instagram photo of the soon-to-be-cut 49ers linebacker with his new girlfriend was posted on his account.

"Thank you all for checking on me," text on top of the photo read.

Foster was released at approximately 1:30 p.m. local time on $2,000 bond, and he left the jail without saying a word to reporters on the scene. Just after 2 p.m. local time, this image was posted on Foster's Instagram Story:

The woman involved in the incident that prompted Foster's arrest Saturday night at the team hotel was his ex-girlfriend, Elissa Ennis, not the woman in the photo. Ennis also is the woman who was the accuser in the domestic violence case that was dropped against Foster earlier this year.

Ennis recanted her allegations that Foster punched her in the head several times in an incident while they were living together in the San Jose area.

The reason for Ennis to be at the team hotel the night before the 49ers' game against the Buccaneers still is unclear, but it didn't turn out well for the second-year linebcaker. The team has announced its plan to release him Monday.
