The Texans have promoted Arian Foster to their active roster, according to the Houston Chronicle on twitter. The club waived defensive end Jesse Nading as the adjoining move.

Our View: The Texans now have four running backs on their roster, as Foster joins Steve Slaton, Ryan Moats and Chris Brown. Foster is not expected to see much action.

May Be Willing To Re-evaluate After Week 10 Bye

After nine games, the Texans have struggled to run the football consistently well. They're averaging 3.3 yards per rush and 90.8 yards per game. The lone 100-plus yard performance by an individual came when Ryan Moats carried 23 times for 126 yards in the road win at Buffalo. Moats, Steve Slaton and Chris Brown have carried the football with varying frequencies throughout the season, and head coach Gary Kubiak said after Tuesday's practice that the team still needs those three ball carriers.I know y'all are tired of hearing it, but I'll need them all and I'll watch them practice," Kubiak said. "I want to see how Steve responds and comes back from this break. I want to see how Ryan responds and Chris being as fresh as he can be. So it'll be a day-to-day deal for me."Brown didn't carry the football in Sunday's loss at Indianapolis. He has averaged 3.3 yards per carry in 42 attempts this season. Of the three backs, he has the fewest total rushes, but Kubiak still has confidence in Brown."To me, it's hard for three guys to get involved when you're running the ball as much as we've been running the ball, so that's been difficult," Kubiak said. "We'll get everything Chris has here over the course of these last seven weeks, and obviously he'll be as fresh as he's been coming out of training camp, so we'll see." (houstontexans.com)

FF Today's Take: The last quote would seem to suggest that Kubiak wants to get Brown involved after the bye, but the fact he didn't receive a single carry in Week 9 says more. While Slaton is the more talented player, it's pretty clear that Moats is the better north-south runner, which is a big deal in the Texans' zone-blocking system. Moats didn't help himself with a questionable fumble in Week 9, but neither player separated himself from the other vs. Indy. This remains a situation to keep a very close eye on.
