Texans docs don't think Foster needs surgery
Arian Foster - RB - Houston Texans
Feb. 1, 2013 - 10:10 AM ET

Texans team doctors don't believe Arian Foster needs the minor heart procedure he plans on getting in "about a month."

"Our medical team continues to monitor it. We're comfortable with where he is," said GM Rick Smith. "He missed one-half of practice and one-half of a game. Our doctors treated him. They continue to monitor it." Foster told NFL Network's Alex Flanagan on Thursday that he was expecting to have the procedure to alleviate an irregular heartbeat. It remains to be seen what is going to happen, but it's nothing major.
