Arian Foster was scheduled to work out for the Miami Dolphins on Monday. Apparently things went well.
NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport says Foster is going to sign with the Dolphins:

A day earlier ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Foster was scheduled to work out for the Lions a day after his workout with the Dolphins. Apparently that is not going to happen.
It seemed all along that Foster was a better fit in Miami than anywhere else. The Dolphins were thin at running back with just Jay Ajayi, Kenyan Drake, Damien Williams and Daniel Thomas. They lost Lamar Miller to Foster’s old team, the Houston Texans, in free agency. So now it looks like those teams are swapping backs.
Foster is returning from a torn Achilles’ tendon injury. He was averaging a career-low 2.6 yards per carry last season, but in 2014, he rushed for 1,246 yards and posted a combined 13 touchdowns.
