Personal Life

As was documented on ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown, Foster was a philosophy major at the University of Tennessee and is an avid writer of poetry. Foster's first name is an abbreviated form of Aquarian, which means "water bearer," or (according to his father) "holder of knowledge." Foster is of African American and Mexican American heritage. The Sporting News called Foster, “The most interesting man in the NFL.” When not at practice, Arian can be found working out with his personal trainer and brother, Abdul; spending time with his wife, Romina and daughter Zeniah; trying to straighten out his 300+ yard drives or volunteering with one of the many charities he supports including The Boys and Girls Clubs and “A Crucial Catch,” a program of the American Cancer Society dedicated to early detection of breast cancer.

Arian became a vegan in July of 2012. He tweeted the following statement, "Officially a vegan now . . . Feels wonderful." In November 2012, he revealed that he still eats meat from time to time but mostly wants to stay on plant based foods.

Foster revealed he is an atheist on Dan Lebatard is Highly Questionable.

He also guest-starred on Hawaii Five-0 Season 3 Episode 17 aired on February 18, 2013.
