Bad news for the Houston Texans: Arian Foster was forced to leave Saturday night's preseason game with a leg injury. Foster left the game holding the back of his left leg and looked to be in quite a bit of discomfort as he hobbled off the field. It is unlikely he will return on Saturday night as the Texans battle the San Francisco 49ers.

We’ll be back with more as it becomes available.
