Injured Texans running back Arian Foster thinks he'll play again

HOUSTON -- There's plenty of reason to believe Texans running back Arian Foster's Texans career is over, and reason to believe his NFL career is over. But Foster is confidence he'll be back in the league.

"Yeah I'll play again," he told Kristie Rieken of The Associated Press. "I'm not the first one to come back from an Achilles tendon (injury)."

That's true, but his circumstances make it more of a challenge. Foster hasn't played a full season since 2012, suffering injuries in each of the following seasons. In 2013, he had back surgery that caused him to miss eight games.
