The Texans moved to quickly to get some Arian Foster insurance in.
According to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle, the Texans are going to sign veteran running back Pierre Thomas after his workout this morning.
They also looked at former Jets running back Joe McKnight and Ben Malena, though Thomas is the closest thing to a like-for-like replacement that they’re going to find at this stage.
They needed some help after Foster’s groin injury, which is going to require surgery and will cost him part of the regular season.
