HOUSTON (AP)—The Houston Texans released running back Steve Slaton(notes) on
Tuesday and signed Chris Ogbonnaya(notes) from the practice squad.

The 5-foot-9, 209-pound Slaton was a third-round pick in 2008 and was the
NFL’s top rookie rusher with 1,282 yards. He rushed for 437 yards but fumbled
seven times in 2009 and was placed on injured reserve after 11 games. He had
neck surgery after the season, and never regained his form.

Arian Foster(notes) emerged in 2010, and Slaton was relegated to backup duty and
returning kicks. Foster has been limited by a left hamstring strain early this
season, and 2010 second-round pick Ben Tate(notes) topped 100 yards rushing in
Houston’s first two games. Slaton has only seven carries for 20 yards this
season.

Houston coach Gary Kubiak said Monday that he’s optimistic that Foster will
be ready when Houston (2-1) plays Pittsburgh (2-1) on Sunday.

Foster, the NFL’s leading rusher last season, has been inactive for two of
Houston’s first three games.

“I hope he’s full-go,” Kubiak said. “I know he’s chomping at the bit to
get back on the field full-time and we’ll sit there and watch how he works and
hopefully everything’s full speed.”

The 6-foot, 220-pound Ogbonnaya was the Texans’ leading rusher in the
preseason and the only running back who avoided an injury during training camp.
A former Texas star, Ogbonnaya was a seventh-round draft pick by St. Louis in
2009, then was cut last September.

Indy’s top rusher hasn’t practiced since injuring a nerve in his left shoulder Oct. 17 at Washington. Indianapolis running back Joseph Addai is doubtful for the Colts’ game Monday night against Houston after missing another practice Saturday. Indianapolis Colts appear to have the same challenge the Pittsburgh Steelers had last season when they opened the season without their star quarterback. For Jim Caldwell’s team to have similar success, the Colts are going to have to do their best Steelers impression.

After being released by Miami last November, cornerback Jason Allen was claimed off waivers by the Texans the next day. When the 2006 first-round selection arrived in Houston, a familiar feeling resurfaced during his first secondary meeting.
