Arian Foster to undergo minor heart procedure
Arian Foster - RB - Houston Texans
Jan. 31, 2013 - 8:25 PM ET

Arian Foster is expected to undergo a minor heart procedure in "about a month."

Foster is "considering a heart ablation" to help alleviate the problem that forced him to leave the Texans' Week 16 game with an irregular heartbeat. Foster says he has been dealing with the problem since he was 12 years old, but it's the first time it ever affected him in a game. He seems to think the issue is related to stress. If Foster does have the procedure, it shouldn't affect his offseason availability.
