Kubiak: Ben Tate injured hamstring in victory

[Franchise 5 1]

Coach Gary Kubiak revealed following Sunday's win that Ben Tate suffered a hamstring late in Week 7 against the Ravens.

The Texans have an upcoming bye, but this explains why Justin Forsett received six late-game carries. Tate wasn't on the field in garbage time. Kubiak is optimistic Tate's hamstring will heal during the open date. The Texans will emerge from Week 8 to face the Bills' horrendous defense in Week 9.

Haha. This coming after I was reading some analyst say how much of a good move it would be to trade Foster for a bunch of picks because Tate can handle the load himself.
