Surprise, surprise, Colston hurt again

It seems the oft-injured Marques Colston of the New Orleans Saints is hurting again and is expected to miss at least four weeks with a broken collarbone suffered in Thursday's game against Green Bay.

Colston was once an elite receiver in the league but hasn't been able to regain that status for a few years now due to injuries. Lance Moore (groin) may or may not be back next week which means the value of Devery Henderson and Robert Meacham rises dramatically.

The other big injury of note for this weekend is the status of Houston running back Arian Foster. A few days ago it seemed promising that he would play but now reports are saying he's doubtful. Head coach Gary Kubiak says Derrick Ward will get the start if Foster can't go but that Ben Tate and Steve Slaton will also play. Many fantasy owners are starting Tate in anticipation of his getting a lot of touches and that may not be a bad way to go.
