After 7 years. Not sure who they got waiting in the wings I can't remember. Crazy though this guys fantastic when he's on the field. Injuries are the question.
Had him on a my fantasy team a few years back and gave me consistent numbers. Interesting to see where he lands.
Denver could be a legit landing spot. Their top two RBs are free agents. I know Anderson is restricted, but they tendered him at the lowest level so someone may try to pry him away. Foster can reunite with Kubiak and his zone scheme.
He has one foot out of the league.  The other foot has a torn achilles tendon attached to it.
Wish him the best of luck.
Was Foster the guy who sold stock in himself? Some football player did that a few years ago...
He wasn't that fantastic last year when he was on the field. Okay. Not special...at all.

believe Vernon davis might have been one  (there was more than 1 but I remember 1 being a 49er)
He's had injuries and wear, but prayin for the guy to land in a good spot, even if he isn't hip to that.
When I think of him I'll always remember how he became the excuse for people to say any undrafted RB could be super awesome and we had no way of knowing.
I read the average life expectancy of a running back in the NFL is something like 3 years at best. I can't think of any other position that can wear a player down faster.. Best of luck to Foster..
Foster may land somewhere, but his injury may keep him from playing much this year. The Texans obviously saw that. I definitely think Gio and Hill are our running backs of the future.
