Arian Foster tears Achilles, out for year

The Texans' already-terrible day at the office ended on an even lower note.

Arian Foster suffered a torn Achilles and will miss the remainder of the season, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per a source informed of his injury.

Foster was carted off the field with a non-contact leg injury late in the fourth quarter of Houston's 44-26 embarrassing loss to Miami.

Immediately after the game, Texans coach Bill O'Brien said of the injury, "It obviously didn't look good."

Foster left the game with 18 carries for 59 yards on the ground, five catches for 66 yards through the air and two touchdowns.

This marks another setback for Foster, who has rarely been fully healthy throughout his career and missed three games earlier this season with a groin injury.

Fantasy Impact: 

Alfred Blue and Chris Polk will take over most of the running duties. It's a big loss for fantasy owners as Foster was just starting to make his mark.
