Arian Foster returns to practice

Arian Foster has been cleared to return to practice after having to leave the Houston Texans' game against the Minnesota Vikings early.

The running back was diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat in Sunday's loss.

Coach Gary Kubiak told the Texans website: "Arian's fine. He's been cleared. Took all his normal reps he would take on a Wednesday."

The 26-year-old has 14 touchdowns this season, and has rushed for over 1,300 yards.

The Texans will need to beat the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday to ensure a bye week in the playoffs.
