Foster reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Foster fielded 13 special-teams snaps during Sunday's 20-17 loss to New England, but he again went without involvement on the offensive side. The 27-year-old has been deployed on offense only once in a game all season, generating nine scrimmage yards on two touches Week 9 against Miami. Given that he's been called up to the active roster for four consecutive games, he could very well be back in the mix Week 13 for a matchup against the Rams.

The Cardinals elevated Foster to the active roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
It's an interesting move, as the Cardinals already have four healthy running backs on the roster. The 27-year-old is rarely involved on offense, though, so he'll likely stick to special-teams coverage. Foster has recorded two tackles through five games.

Foster reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad after recording one tackle during a 28-21 loss to Seattle on Thursday Night Football, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Foster fielded 17 special-teams snaps during the NFC West clash, but he again went without involvement on the offensive side. Among Foster's five appearances in 2020, he's been utilized on offense only once, fielding five snaps while recording two yards on one carry and one reception for seven yards against Miami in Week 9. He goes back to the practice squad for now, but Foster has been activated for three consecutive contests.

The Cardinals elevated Foster to it's 53-man roster via the practice squad for Thursday's game against Seattle, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Foster was called up to the 53-man roster for the fifth time this season, as he's logged one carry rushing while putting in the rest of his work on special teams. With Kenyan Drake (ankle) expected to suit up Thursday, Foster will likely stick to a special-teams role for Week 11.

Foster reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, Alex Weiner of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Foster joined cornerback Jace Whittaker in a trip back to the practice squad, after the two were activated for Sunday's thrilling 32-30 win over the Bills. The Arizona State product fielded seven special-teams snaps during the contest, collecting one tackle on punt coverage, but he went unutilized on the offensive side in what was his fourth appearance of 2020.

The Cardinals elevated Foster to the active roster Saturday, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
This move hints that Kenyan Drake (ankle) may be on the wrong side of questionable, although coach Kliff Kingsbury maintains that Drake's status will be determined following pregame warmups. Foster likely will stick to special teams regardless of Drake's status.
