Diehards Line:
Foster, who underwent surgery after tearing his Achilles on Oct. 25 at Miami, started four games in 2015. He recording 163 yards rushing and 227 yards receiving with three touchdowns (one rushing, two receiving). In his seven NFL seasons, Foster became the Texans franchise career leader with 6,472 yards rushing, 54 touchdowns rushing, and 68 total touchdowns. The big question, of course, is whether the Texans believe Foster’s upside coming off an injury-plagued season where he had two surgeries is worth his $8.925 million salary-cap figure.
