Fantasy Football Week 7: Arian Foster and the Top Fantasy Stars Back on Track

Welcome back to the penthouse Arian Foster.

After frustrating fantasy owners for the last six weeks, finally the Foster of old is back, and by the looks of things, better than ever.

In a key game against division-rival Tennessee, Foster mauled them for 115 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. His 4.6 yards per carry average tells us his hamstring is finally no longer a problem.

Yet, it’s his 119 yards and additional touchdown through the air that vaulted him to fantasy player of the day status.

Foster is clearly back on must-start every week status, and you can expect him to remain there for the rest of the season. As Andre Johnson continues to nurse an injury, expect Foster to keep rolling with monster days as a pass catcher.

Here are two other players that finally broke through on Sunday:

Plaxico Burress- New York Jets

What is so special about four receptions for 28 yards? Three touchdowns, that’s what.

Burress was the go-to guy in the red zone as  QB Mark Sanchez is finally realizing this is his greatest strength. Four incompletions in his direction is a bit concerning but expect Sanchez to keep looking in Burress’ direction once his team gets down to the red zone.

Hope you didn’t lose patience and drop him already…he’s back to legit W2 status.

Jonathan Stewart- Carolina Panthers

Having one of the Panthers’ backs on your roster is always risky business, but after Stewart put up 68 yards and a touchdown in Carolina’s win over the Redskins, it’s safe to say he’s the preferred back over DeAngelo Williams, who only mustered 35 yards.

Cam Newton is the main goal-line back, but Stewart is now the featured back in every other situation. After also registering a touchdown last week…you can start Stewart again knowing he is going to be getting plenty of opportunities.
