Arian Foster speaks to media in British accent

Arian Foster doesn't really like talking to the media. The Houston Texans running back has made it clear in the past that he gets annoyed by the task (similar to Seattle Sehawks running back Marshawn Lynch). Must be a tailback thing. The three-time Pro Bowler proved that during a strange session with reporters during training camp earlier this year by answering 11 questions the same way, saying, "I'm just trying to be the best teammate I can be."

During a session with the assembled press Thursday, Foster had a new way to counter his boredom: speak in a British accent. The 28-year-old reportedly used phrases like "cheerio" and corrected a reporter who called him "mate" saying that was more of an Australian term.

The Texans will play the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14. Of course, the Jags "hosted" the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10 in London in a game played at Wembley Stadium. If Houston travels across the pond in 2015, we know one player that will fell right at home.
