HOUSTON - Sitting out last week's 30-17 loss to the New York Giants, Arian Foster is giving it a go for the Houston Texans as he is active against the Buffalo Bills.

Foster was limited in practice last week, listed as questionable leading up to Sunday. His workload against the Bills will depend how how his hamstring holds up during the game.

The Texans made Foster the workhorse during their first two games of the season, with both contest resulting in wins. The running back carried the ball 55 times for 241 yards in those games combined.

Without Foster in the game, the Texans struggled moving the ball with quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick handed the keys to the offense in the loss to the Giants. Rookie Alfred Blue started the game at running back gaining 78 yards in 13 carries. He returns to the backup role behind Foster against the Bills.
