Slaton out for preseason finale with turf toe
Steve Slaton - RB - Houston Texans
Aug. 29, 2010 - 12:20 AM ET
Steve Slaton left Saturday's game against the Cowboys with a foot injury.
Slaton returned from the locker room in shorts and said he'd be fine. NFL Network is calling it a turf toe injury, though, and he's not expected to play in the preseason finale. Turf toe injuries are known to linger depending on the severity, so Slaton is no sure bet to be ready for the opener. He's only draftable as a "handcuff" to Arian Foster at this point.
