ORLANDO (CBSMiami/AP) — Newly-acquired running back Arian Foster had a 2-yard touchdown run in the Miami Dolphins’ 17-6 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday night.
Foster, who joined the Dolphins during the offseason and is coming off an Achilles injury, had his most extensive playing time with his new team in the third preseason game that was played at Orlando’s Camping World Stadium.
“It’s just a testament to the work we have been putting in, it is doing the work every single day,” Foster said. “We keep getting better, taking each opportunity to give back.”
The four-time Pro Bowl running back played in just one series in the first half, but he made the most of the limited opportunities by sparking the Dolphins to their lone touchdown drive of the half with five carries for 10 yards, capped by his 2-yard scoring run early in the second quarter.
