Currently the Houston Texans employ a running back by committee approach to fill in the absence of Arian Foster. Unfortunately, the backfield that consists a steady dose of former sixth round pick Alfred Blue, 2015 free agent acquisition Chris Polk, undrafted free agent Jonathan Grimes and 2015 undrafted street free agent Akeem Hunt.
The biggest problem with the running backs in Houston is that none of them have shown any consistency. The ensemble of mediocrity employed by Houston have amassed an atrocious 3.5 yards-per-carry over the first thirteen games.
