Brooks Foster Sent Home From Senior Bowl

Posted Jan 23, 2009
Brooks Foster knew his still-healing right knee might not make it through Senior Bowl practices this week. After two days of practice, Foster was sent home because of difficulties with the knee. However, it shouldn't dramatically impact his NFL draft status as long as he's ready for the league combine next month in Indianapolis. Foster (6-3, 205) is regarded as a raw but promising wide receiver prospect. (Raleigh News & Observer)
