Dr LBC Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 It's been a rough season to be @EliteTexan80, I imagine. Brutal luck for Houston, but brutal luck for Foreman as today actually looked like a breakout game for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarCrazy2832 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 That’s awful. All my favorite young Texans keep getting seriously hurt First Watson and now Foreman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he can get back to 100% by next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a World Series Championship keeping me warm - if it wasn't for that, I would have lost it by now. Brutal injury, just brutal. You kind of saw it buckle when he was going down the sidelines - when he didn't get up, you knew it was bad. There were a lot of high hopes for Foreman, and this game illustrated what he can do; Hopefully he'll get better and maybe he can make the impact we were expecting in 2019.

Sugashane Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 This sucks, I was a big fan of his at Texas and pre-draft. Hopefully he and Watson don't have any lingering issues from these injuries. They can be a hell of a duo to add with Hopkins and Fuller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyMouse07 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 How does this affect him for next year? Is it something that will keep him out until midway next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it something that will keep him out until midway next year? I suppose it depends on the severity of the tear. If it's a rupture, for a RB, that's a major concern, because so much of his game is about planting and driving forward. And explosiveness. Achilles injuries can sap that big time. I mean, most recently Branden Oliver tore his Achilles last season and made it back for the season opener this year, but he went down in a preseason game, not in Week 11. Foreman's almost assured starting the season on the PUP next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance, a much older D Johnson tore his Achilles late last season and was back to full speed the beginning of this season. But that can also be based on how a guys heals in general. But my poor, poor BDL rookie stud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a guy I was considering keeping with a late round pick. Knew the Texans would be moving from Miller to him. Hopefully he can heal well and that its not something that is going to ruin his young career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, maybe it's just me I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwibrown Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 That is a nasty injury that can have a poor prognosis for NFL athletes. Freeman is young so hopefully he makes a good recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
