Arian Fosters diet drew a lot of attention in the preseason when he announced he was a vegan.
While Foster avoids meat mostly, he gives himself breaks.
Im not in a cult, Foster said. Nothings going to happen to me. I just wanted a piece of chicken. It wasnt like temptation. I felt like I could use one.
The discussion of his diet resurfaced Thursday in regard to the high number of carries hes had this year. Foster leads the NFL with 192 carries this season. While his carries have increased, Fosters catches have decreased.
He said comparing how his body feels this year to how it felt in years past is difficult because of different variables.
Ive been dabbling back and forth, Foster said on his diet. I just like to eat healthy. The whole vegan thing, a lot of people are really interested in my food. Ive had meat since I said I dont eat meat anymore, but I like to stay with the plant-based foods, but every now and then, Ill eat something.
