Texans sign UDFA RB Arian Foster

[Arky]

McClain reported in Monday's chat that Foster was signed to a 2-year UDFA deal:

John McClain: He was a big-time prospect as a junior, but he got hurt at the end of the season and underwent knee surgery. He tried to come back last season on a bad team and didn't do much. If the Texans get the 6-1, 227-pound Foster who was a junior, he'll be a steal. They had to give him a two-year contract to get him, unusual for an undrafted FA, but that's how much they think of him.

The rumor was that the Saints were also after him and perhaps Rick Smith had to give him the 2-year deal as grease...
