Arian Foster posts another impressive fantasy line in Week 6

Foster averaged 5.5 yards per carry and didn’t seem to have much trouble finding space to run on Thursday night. We break down the fantasy implications.

Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports

Arian Foster rushed for 109 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries in Week 6 against the Indianapolis Colts. He also caught three passes on four targets for 32 yards.

Houston looked like it would get blown out from the start, but with the help of Foster on the ground, the Texans offense managed to start moving the ball well and even pull with one score of the Colts.

Fantasy impact: There weren’t any injuries holding Foster back Thursday night. He was running with power and confidence against the Colts, averaging 5.5 yards per carry and keeping his offense rolling.

Fantasy Rankings: QB RB WR TE D/ST

Ryan Fitzpatrick was awful at times throughout the game. He only attempted 23 passes. Bill O'Brien likes to throw the ball, but with Foster healthy, he's going to continue letting his star running back carry the offense. The Texans face the Steelers in Week 7. Barring any setbacks or new issues, Foster is an RB1.
