The PFT commentator, one of the show’s hosts, sarcastically told the audience that Foster told him a script would be left in his locker before the start of the season.
«We were really dedicated to it. So, it was more like that’s what the practice was about: it was about practicing the script. This is what happens, this is what we have to do … WWF, so it’s like we know what’s going to happen. You still have to put on a show,» the four-time Pro Bowl running back said.
He was then asked about «the script» he received when his career «fell off a cliff» when he stopped believing in God.
«It was in 2015. Oddly enough, the writers had nothing to do with it, really. It’s more to do with them needing a change of scenery in Houston,» Foster said deadpan. «It was time to go. They wanted to get everyone out of Houston, that was the ultimate goal.»
