Arian Foster sees another heavy workload to help fantasy stats

The Texans have now given Foster 55 carries in two games to start 2014.

Arian Foster rushed for 138 yards and one touchdown on 28 carries in Week 2 against the Oakland Raiders. He also caught two passes on three targets for 12 yards in Week 2.

The Houston Texans were leading 27-0 to start the fourth quarter, so it was never a competitive game. They relied on Foster and the rushing attack to wind down the clock as the afternoon progressed. Alfred Blue received 11 carries of his own down the stretch.

Fantasy impact: After playing eight games in 2013, the Texans are using Foster like a true RB1. He has 55 carries through his first two games. As long as he’s healthy, Houston appears to be intent on using Foster as much as it can each week.

The Texans take on the Giants in Week 3. Foster is locked in as a RB1 in this matchup. New York is winless so far and hasn’t done much to slow down opponents.
