Arian Foster is back. Fantasy owners need to get him back in their lineups. We look at the fantasy implications.
Arian Foster is back. The Houston Texans running back is officially active for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. Foster will reunite with quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, who is back under center after Ryan Mallett was placed on injured reserve. Foster has been dealing with a groin injury for nearly a month now, but he's looking at a full workload for Week 13.
The last time Foster faced the Titans, he rushed for 151 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught four passes for 22 yards and another score. Foster will likely be a big part of the game plan as the Texans will try to control the game on the ground in a very favorable match up.
Fantasy impact: Fantasy owners that are in the playoff hunt now have one of the best starts this week. Foster's match up couldn't be better. The Titans likely won't be able to stop him, and he'll see plenty of action as a receiver out of the backfield as Fitzpatrick leans on short and intermediate passes.
He's an absolute must-start and a top-tier RB1 for Week 13. Assuming Foster stays healthy, he'll have another great matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14. Alfred Blue owners should stash Blue in the event that Foster can't stay healthy down the stretch.
