Foster played all 16 games for the Steelers and played right guard, left guard, and right tackle. Over the past three seasons Foster has been one of the most consistent lineman on the Steelers roster and since becoming a starter in 2010 he is the only lineman on the Steelers roster who has not missed a game in that span due to injury. 2012 first round pick David DeCastro was drafted to be the Steelers starting right guard.
