It's so hard to lose a binkie. I really liked Foster and hope like hell he makes it back to the PS, but frankly I doubt it. I felt he had the potential to be better than White next year, and showed some flashes of it in the few chances he got here.
Unfortunately White was viewed as more dependable, since he's been in the offense a lot longer, and he never got hurt, so Foster never got a real chance to show what he had before Lewis showed up and closed the door on him ever getting on the field.
If he dosen't come back this will be just ANOTHER reason to be pissed at Branch getting bagged for pot smoking, because between him being gone for a few weeks, and Hamilton not being able to get back on the field, the Pats really did need to sign someone to provide some DT depth.
I'm kind of surprised they didn't come back to Terrence Knighton
