The Houston Texans have struggled to score points through the first three weeks of the season, and a lot of that has to do with Arian Foster being out with a groin injury. Fortunately, it appears that help is on the way.
Texans coach Bill O’Brien has labeled Foster a game-time decision for Week 4 against the Atlanta Falcons, according to ESPN’s Ed Werder. O’Brien said he won’t know Foster’s status until roughly 90 minutes before game time.
Earlier this week, O’Brien said Foster is “close” to making his return. It should be noted that the 29-year-old has yet to get in a full week of practice, so he probably needs to do more before he can suit up for an actual game.
