Arian Foster isn’t 30 yet but many people think he’s washed up. Not because there’s a major decrease in his skills but because he just can’t seem to stay healthy. Well Foster thinks that’ll change soon.
via ProFootballTalk:
Free-agent running back Arian Foster, still recovering from a torn Achilles tendon and still looking for a new job after being cut by the Texans, believes he’s getting closer to a return to full strength.
“I probably need another month to get where I am, the person everyone is use to seeing,” Foster told abc13.com in Houston. “I can definitely play, but I need another month to be where I want to be and be at that Pro Bowl level I can be at.”
Can he get there? Foster’s brother, Abdul, believes Arian can be “probably better.”
Two years ago, Foster was pretty good, with 1,246 yards rushing and an average of 4.8 yards per carry. From 2011 through 2013, Foster had three straight 1,000-yard seasons, with a total of 4,264 rushing yards.
