Houston Texans RB Ben Tate was standoffish when asked about whether or not there was room for both he and Arian Foster in the team’s backfield.
Tate admits that he does “think about (the money) sometimes,” per Dale Robertson of the Houston Chronicle. Tate also mentioned thatย when he gets an opportunity to get a new larger contract, he will.
While Tate may not necessarily be implying that the situation can’t work, the Texans may find themselves in a difficult situation with two solid players. Tate is under contract through the 2013 season, so this may not be an issue until next offseason, assuming that he’s not forced to take on a larger role in the team’s offense this season.
