Foster did not run with the team on Monday after totaling 10 carries for 33 yards in Week 2. It was his first game action since Aug. 27 in the preseason. “Arian’s missed a lot of time," Kubiak said. "He’s coming off the hamstring. We knew going into the game we weren’t going to play Arian 40, 50 plays. I talked about that last week. We were hoping to get him 10-15 carries. He ended up getting 10.” Kubiak said Foster told running backs coach Chick Harris at halftime on Sunday that his hamstring was “tightening up a little bit.” That’s when the Texans decided to roll with Ben Tate and Steve Slaton. Tate finished with 23 carries for 103 yards, including 82 yards in the second half and Kubiak said Tate would get the bulk of the work until Foster has fully recovered. Foster will be day-to-day this week as the 2-0 Texans prepare for a road game at New Orleans.
