RB Arian Foster played on 57 snaps, which was 97% of the Texans plays.

Fantasy Impact:

Foster didn't have a stud-like day but went over 100 yards in the win over Washington. After not seeing much time in the field this summer, owners can breath a little easier for the moment as Foster looks like he's back. Jonathan Grimes played on just 8 snaps while Alfred Blue saw just two snaps.

B. O'Brien: Texans RB Arian Foster is 'going to play a lot'

Arian Foster missed eight games in 2013 and sat out the entire preseason slate, but Houston Texans coach Bill O'Brien said he plans to ride the veteran running back in his first game back on Sunday against the Washington Redskins.

"Arian's going to play a lot," O'Brien said, per the Houston Chronicle. "After that, we'll see how it goes."

"I believe at some point you'll see all three of those other backs: Jonathan Grimes, Alfred Blue and Ronnie Brown in different situations. But Arian will get the bulk of the playing time," O'Brien said.

Fantasy Impact:

Foster says he's healthy and he should see a ton of work as long as he's upright. Grimes is his handcuff for now, but rookie Alfred Blue is waiting in the wings.

Going into the offseason program, Texans RB Jonathan Grimes was a long shot to make the team and was expected to be the fourth back at best behind Arian Foster, Andre Brown and rookie Alfred Blue. Grimes has developed into one of the team’s best surprises, impressing the new staff with his skills, work ethic and ability to pick up the new system. Brown was released, opening a spot for Grimes. He took advantage of Foster’s hamstring injury to start the first two preseason games and led the team in rushing with 81 yards on 19 carries (4.3 average). He has three catches for 25 yards (8.3 average). He’s improved as a pass protector. Grimes (5-10, 209) impressed the team as an undrafted rookie in 2012 and was placed on the practice squad but was signed by the Jets. He returned to the Texans in 2013 and saw some action near the end of the season.

Fantasy Impact:

Grimes is currently slated to serve as Arian Foster's primary backup, though rookie Alfred Blue could make a push.
