  • Continuing career in desert

    Green agreed to terms on a contract with the Cardinals on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Green and the Cardinals are finalizing a one-year deal worth up to $8.5 million, including $6 million guaranteed. One of the all-time wideouts of his generation, Green is coming off a down year with the Bengals, having especially struggled after Joe Burrow (knee) went down with a torn ACL. Now entering his age-33 season, Green will head into a more favorable situation in Arizona, joining Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins. Hopkins' presence should force opposing…read more

  • Catchless in finale

    Green recorded no catches on six targets in the team's Week 17 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Green struggled along with the rest of the Bengals' offense, as the team managed to complete only six passes across the entire game. Despite playing in all 16 contests, Green posted by far the worst campaign of his career by finishing with only 523 yards and two touchdowns. While some of his struggles in 2020 can be attributed to poor quarterback play in the second half of the season, it's difficult to project Green to return to his top form as he will be 33 when the 2021 season begins. …read more

  • Records four receptions

    Green recorded four receptions on seven targets for 64 yards in Week 16 against the Texans.

    Analysis: Green was one of four Bengals pass-catchers to command at least six targets, as Brandon Allen took to the air 37 times. The veteran wideout struggled to get going initially, gaining only five yards on his first five targets. However, Green was a strong contributor thereafter, logging receptions of 33, 14 and 12 yards. Given the way Allen has spread targets around, Green can't be confidently projected for significant volume in Week 17 against the Ravens.

  • Tops team in receiving yards

    Green brought in two of three targets for 40 yards in the Bengals' 27-17 win over the Steelers on Monday night.

    Analysis: Green provided the highlight of the night for the air attack with a 30-yard reception, which also helped propel him to the team lead in receiving yardage for the contest. The multi-time Pro Bowler was coming off his best game since late October in the form of a 6-62-1 effort against the Cowboys in Week 14, so Monday night's numbers represented a modest downturn. Green will look to boost his overall production at the expense of a sub-par Texans secondary in a Week 16 matchup.

  • Rebounds in Week 14

    Green recorded six receptions on seven targets for 62 yards and a touchdown in Week 14 against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Green had drawn only four targets across his last two games combined heading into Week 14. However, he bounced back to exceed five targets for only the second time since Week 8. He made the most of the opportunity by recording four receptions of 10 or more yards. Green also found the end zone for the second time this season on a five-yard reception with eight seconds remaining in the first half. He'll next draw a Week 15 matchup against the Steelers.

  • One target Week 13

    Green failed to catch is only target during Sunday's 19-7 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: The 32-year-old played 45 of 52 offensive snaps but received his only target on a short route during the third quarter. Green has only four catches for 41 yards and one touchdown over the past four games -- all of which came in one contest -- and his outlook doesn't figure to improve much the rest of the season with Brandon Allen (chest) or Ryan Finley leading the offense.

  • Goes without a catch

    Green didn't catch any of his three targets during Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: Green tied for fourth on the team in targets but failed to connect with Brandon Allen, who struggled to the tune of 4.7 yards per attempt. The veteran wideout has now been held without a catch on three occasions this season, which is quite surprising given his pedigree, playmaking ability and hefty salary. Green's fantasy value could be near its all-time low at the moment and he seems unlikely to produce useful numbers in next Sunday's matchup with the Dolphins.

  • Scores first TD since 2018

    Green caught four of nine targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-9 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: Green bounced back from last week's goose egg by posting his fourth-highest yardage total of the season and finding the end zone for the first time since Week 8 of the 2018 campaign. He got the Bengals on the board with a five-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter, but that will end up being the last touchdown rookie quarterback Joe Burrow throws this season, as the first overall pick was carted off with a season-ending knee injury early in the second half. Green and the rest of the…read more

  • Goose egg against Steelers

    Green was shut out on five targets in Sunday's loss to the Steelers, despite playing 54 snaps (83 percent of the offensive snaps).

    Analysis: So much for Green's resurgence seen in Week 6 and Week 7. He's not getting as much separation as he used to earlier in his career, nor is he as successful in coming down with contested catches. He's not putting together a great resume in his walk season.

  • Just two catches in win

    Green caught two of five targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 31-20 win over the Titans.

    Analysis: After displaying a flash of his old self with a 15-178-0 line over the previous two games, Green was brought back to earth Sunday. He finished behind rookie Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd and Auden Tate in receiving yards, as each of the aforementioned receivers surpassed 60 yards. Green has been rumored as possible trade bait since the Bengals sit at 2-5-1, but this was a poor closing pitch.

  • Hauls in seven of 13 targets

    Green caught seven of 13 targets for 82 yards in Sunday's 37-34 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: Green has come alive with 15 catches for 178 yards in the last two games after totaling only 14 catches for 119 yards over the season's first five contests. The veteran wide receiver is still in search of his first touchdown since Week 8 of 2018, but Green tied Tyler Boyd for the team lead in targets in this game, and his chemistry with rookie quarterback Joe Burrow has clearly improved heading into a Week 8 clash with the Titans.

  • Posts season highs across the board

    Green caught eight of 11 targets for 96 yards during Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Green set new season highs in targets, receptions and receiving yards in what turned into a surprisingly competitive contest. His long gain went for just 19 yards, but he consistently got open and showed a much-improved rapport with Joe Burrow after totaling just one catch for three yards over the last two games. Green's output improved dramatically despite the success of teammates Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd, suggesting the trio can all succeed for a Bengals team that figures to be behind quite…read more

  • Good to go for Sunday

    Green (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Indianapolis, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: After opening the week with back-to-back LP listings on the practice report, Green elevated to full participation Friday, per Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site. It appears Green will be able to gut out his tweaked left hamstring from this past Sunday versus the Ravens, which limited him to a season-low 42 percent of the snaps on offense. He'll look to bounce back to his typical 60-75 percent snap share against a Colts defense that has given up the second-fewest receiving yards per game…read more

  • Manages limited practice showing

    Green (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.

    Analysis: For the second straight day, Green reps were capped on account of the left hamstring he tweaked in Sunday's loss to the Ravens. According to Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site, the wideout said he plans to push through the injury to play Week 6 in Indianapolis, but he may need to upgrade to full activity Friday to avoid taking a designation into the weekend. After sitting out the entire 2019 campaign with an ankle injury, Green has struggled to recapture top form, hauling in only 14 of…read more

  • Limited at practice

    Green (hamstring) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Green was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Ravens due to an aggravation of his left hamstring injury, but his ability to take the field Wednesday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- suggests that the veteran pass-catcher could suit up this weekend against the Colts. Five games into the season, Green's fantasy impact has been modest, with the 32-year-old having yet to reach the end zone while recording 14 receptions for 119 yards.

  • No timetable for return

    Coach Zac Taylor said Monday that he has no timetable for Green (hamstring) to return, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.

    Analysis: Green was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Ravens due to an aggravation of his left hamstring injury, per Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer. The veteran wideout wasn't able to haul in his only target before leaving the field, and he previously had just one catch Week 4. If Green were forced to miss significant time, it's possible that John Ross (illness) could find his way back into the lineup behind Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins.

  • Injures hamstring

    Green was forced out of Sunday's game against the Ravens with a hamstring injury.

    Analysis: With Green, who did not catch his only target Sunday, out of the game, Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins will continue to head the Bengals' Week 5 wide receiver corps.

  • Just one catch in win

    Green caught just one of five targets for three yards in Sunday's 33-25 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: Green was quiet once again, even as quarterback Joe Burrow reached 300 passing yards for a third consecutive week. The veteran wide receiver spent some time on the sidelines in the second half, but there was no injury reported, so the team was simply sticking with a different preferred personnel grouping while implementing a run-heavy approach with the lead. Green has just 14 catches for 119 yards through four weeks, and it won't be easy to get things going in Baltimore in Week 5.

  • Slow start continues

    Green hauled in five of six targets for 36 receiving yards during Sunday's 23-23 tie against the Eagles.

    Analysis: The seven-time Pro Bowl wideout admitted this week that he's still getting comfortable in game action after missing all of last year because of an ankle injury. That news is comforting for those banking on a resurgence from Green over the course of the season, though it doesn't do much to remedy a series of mediocre fantasy performances through the first three weeks of 2020. The targets have been there for Green in the early going (28), though he's totaled 116 receiving yards and zero…read more

  • Getting resettled after lost 2019

    Green said Thursday that he's started to feel more comfortable on the field after missing the entire 2019 season with an ankle injury and being limited by a hamstring injury in training camp, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports. "I'd be lying if I didn't say I didn't think about [the ankle] the first game," Green said. "For me, it's just going out there and having full confidence in myself that I'm not going to get hurt again. Each week, I get better and better and more comfortable."

    Analysis: Though Green declared himself 100 percent healthy prior to the season, the seven-time Pro Bowler hasn't looked like his old self through the Bengals' first two games. He's hauled in only eight of 22 targets thus far, with his 36.4 percent catch rate well off his 59.6 percent mark from his first eight years in the NFL. Despite the poor results, Green is optimistic that his chemistry with quarterback Joe Burrow and his comfort in coach Zac Taylor's offensive system will improve as the season…read more

  • Inefficient night in loss

    Green secured just three of 13 targets for 29 yards in the Bengals' 35-30 loss to the Browns on Thursday.

    Analysis: Green found himself at the top of the passing-game pecking order in terms of looks, but was tied with rookie Tee Higgins for second-fewest receptions among the team's pass-catchers in Week 2. The multi-time Pro Bowler had a better connection going with rookie quarterback Joe Burrow during the Bengals' season opener against the Chargers and has now seen a whopping 22 targets through two contests.

  • Denied game-winning score

    Green caught five of nine targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: The veteran wideout showed immediate chemistry with rookie QB Joe Burrow, and Green's nine targets paced the Bengals. He also appeared to have caught a three-yard game-winning TD in the final seconds of the fourth quarter, only to get flagged for offensive pass interference. It was still an encouraging start to the Burrow-Green partnership, and the receiver could thrive in Week 2 against a Browns secondary that gave up over 100 receiving yards to Marquise Brown in its opener.

    Green said Thursday that his hamstring injury "back to 100 percent," Tyler Dragon of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Analysis: "I practiced Monday and Wednesday full speed and today still the same thing," Green said. "I feel good." The 32-year-old wideout looks to be a full-go for Sunday's season opener against the Chargers, which will mark his first game-action since October 2018. The 10-year veteran will serve as one of the top targets for rookie quarterback Joe Burrow against a Los Angeles defense which recently lost Derwin James (knee) for the season.

The 32-year-old's status for Week 1 will be confirmed if he logs a full week of practice, but he's expected to get game action for the first time since 2018 regardless and be one of the top targets for new starting quarterback Joe Burrow.

    Green will not participate in Sunday's scrimmage, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Green returned to practice Wednesday after having missed over a week of sessions due to hamstring tightness, and it looks as though his absence Sunday is precautionary rather than evidence of a new injury. The 32-year-old will work to get some on-field reps in during Thursday's scrimmage instead as he looks to ramp up his workload ahead of the Bengals' season opener Sept. 13 versus the Chargers.

    Green (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.

    Analysis: The veteran wideout took part in his first session since he was removed from practice Aug. 17 with hamstring tightness. Assuming he steers clear of setbacks, Green is thus on track to be available for Week 1 action. The 32-year-old's last regular-season appearance came in December 2018, so those targeting Green in fantasy leagues may have to take a leap of faith in hoping that he'll be able to recapture his peak form. So long as he's available this season, Green will have a chance to engineer a…read more

On a positive note, he was spotted running on a rehab field Monday, and Taylor's comments one day later add fuel to the fire that a return is imminent.

    Green (hamstring) ran on a rehab field Monday, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: It's the first time Green has been spotted doing any type of work since he was removed from practice Aug. 17 with hamstring tightness. The missed practice time wouldn't normally be a concern for a 32-year-old veteran, but Green hasn't played in a game since Dec. 2018 and hasn't made it through a game without getting injured since Oct. 2018. The Bengals are now less than three weeks away from their season opener against the Chargers.

    Analysis: Coach Zac Taylor said it was "precautionary" when Green was removed from Monday's practice. The veteran wideout's continued absence doesn't necessarily mean this is a significant hamstring injury, but it does suggest we'll at least need to monitor the situation. Green is set to play 2020 under the franchise tag after missing all of last season with an ankle injury.

    Green's (hamstring) early exit from practice Monday was described as "precautionary" by coach Zac Taylor, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Personal trainer Curtis Winters says Green's surgically repaired left ankle is as strong as it's ever been, and the wideout added some new workouts intended to reduce his odds of another similar injury. The 32-year-old is set to play out 2020 under the franchise tag in Cincinnati, where rookie quarterback Joe Burrow has a strong receiver group that also includes Tyler Boyd, John Ross, Auden Tate and Tee Higgins.

    Analysis: Green is thus slated to earn $17.9 million this coming season. The fourth overall pick in the 2011 draft, who turns 32 later this month, has missed 23 of the Bengals' past 24 games and hasn't seen game action since Week 11 of the 2018 season.

    Green will play out the 2020 season on a franchise tag worth $17.9 million, ESPN.com's Ben Baby reports.

    Analysis: It's a nice salary for a soon-to-be 32-year-old who missed all of last season, but Green did make it known that he'd prefer a contract extension. He still hasn't signed the franchise tender, which means he can skip some or all of training camp without accruing any fines. Green has hinted at taking that approach, but he also said he'll be ready for the start of the regular season.

  • Tagged by Bengals

    Green (ankle) has been informed he'll receive a franchise tag, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: This has been expected for a while, and Green even mentioned in December that he wouldn't mind being tagged. The price should be around $18.5 million, which is good money for a 31-year-old coming off a missed season. It isn't clear if the Bengals intend to discuss a long-term extension, but this does suggest that they expect Green to make a full recovery from last year's ankle injury. Once that happens, he'll likely get to work with LSU quarterback Joe Burrow, the presumed No. 1 overall pick in…read more

  • Likely getting franchise tag

    Green (ankle) is expected to get a franchise tag, ESPN.com's Ben Bay reports.

    Analysis: Players typically don't appreciate the tag, but Green actually mentioned in December that he wouldn't have any problem with it. He's on record wanting to finish his career in Cincinnati, and the tag price of $18.5 million is a handsome payday for a 31-year-old who missed the entire 2019 campaign and also missed six or more games in two of the previous three seasons. Green did look good when he last played in 2018, scoring six touchdowns in nine appearances while averaging 77.1 yards per game…read more

  • Still wanted in Cincy

    Coach Zac Taylor said Wednesday that he's hopeful the team re-signs Green (ankle) this offseason, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports. "He's a big priority for us," Taylor said. "Things will have to work out over the course of the spring, but we certainly plan on A.J. being in the fold next year."

    Analysis: Taylor also said Green is now healthy, though it isn't clear exactly what that means in terms of the wide receiver's physical activity level. The 31-year-old seems like he'll be ready for the start of the offseason program, be it with the Bengals or another team. Green is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in March, and while a relocation would give him a better shot at winning a Super Bowl, he's mentioned on multiple occasions that he hopes to finish his career with the Bengals. He…read more

  • Slated to land on IR

    The Bengals plan to place Green (ankle) on IR this week, Marisa Contipelli of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Green thus will finish the 2019 season without having played a down. With IR decision imminent, Tyler Boyd, John Ross and Alex Erickson will head the team's wide receiver corps in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Browns. Green is eligible to become an unrestricted free agent in advance of the 2020 campaign.

    Analysis: That's no surprise, considering that Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer previously reported that the Bengals could place the receiver on IR next week. In his continued absence, Tyler Boyd, Alex Erickson and John Ross will head the team's wideout corps this weekend and then presumably once again Week 17.

  • Expected to hit IR

    The Bengals are expected to place Green (ankle) on injured reserve next week, Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Analysis: Green's forthcoming move to IR doesn't come as much of a surprise after he told Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site Tuesday that he probably wouldn't play in either of Cincinnati's final two games. The 31-year-old will end up missing the entire 2019 season on account of the left ankle injury he sustained on the first day of training camp that necessitated surgery, but he expressed optimism that he'll be healthy for the offseason.

  • Likely to miss final two games

    Green (ankle) said Tuesday that he doesn't anticipate playing in the Bengals' final two games of the season, though he expects to be at full strength for the start of the 2020 campaign, Geoff Hobson of the team's official site reports. "I feel good just getting confirmation from him," Green said about foot specialist Dr. Robert Anderson, who examined the receiver Monday. "Knowing there's no effect on my future. I never thought it would be that bad that I could never play at a high level. Just hearing him saying it made me feel a lot better."

    Analysis: Though Green hasn't played since injuring his left ankle less than an hour into the Bengals' first training camp session, Cincinnati has kept him on the 53-man roster all season in anticipation of his eventual return. Those hopes appear to have been dashed after Green suffered a setback in November, but the receiver is at least optimistic that the injury won't hamper his training efforts during the offseason. While the 31-year-old's health looks like it will be in a good spot heading into 2020,…read more

    Analysis: On Sunday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the Bengals haven't ruled out Green returning to action Week 16 at Miami or in the season finale against the Browns. According to Rapoport, Green has "looked good in practice," and Monday's meeting could be a sign the wide receiver indeed is inching toward his first game action of the campaign. In the end, though, Green will have to increase his activity level from his customary DNP on the Bengals' injury reports to 'limited' or 'full' before that…read more

  • Still eyeing late-season return

    Green (ankle), who has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots, could be available to play in either or both of the Bengals' final two contests of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The 1-12 Bengals have little to play for at this point, but that apparently hasn't stopped Green from entertaining a late-season return. According to Rapoport, Green has looked good while working off the side during recent practices, leaving the team open to having him play Week 16 in Miami and/or Week 17 versus the Browns. Given that he's been sidelined all season, Green would likely need to put in at least one or two full practices with the rest of the Bengals' healthy players before the team…read more

    Analysis: Though Green is being viewed as day-to-day, his inability to practice to begin the week doesn't bode well for his early chances of playing Sunday against the Patriots. The veteran has yet to make his season debut, and the 1-12 Bengals have little incentive to push him to play until they're confident he's fully healthy.

    Coach Zac Taylor labeled Green (ankle) as day-to-day heading into the Bengals' Week 15 game against the Patriots, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site report.

    Analysis: The day-to-day designation doesn't represent any real change in status for Green, as Taylor labeled the star wideout the same way two weeks ago. Since that time, Green has taken a marginal step forward in his recovery from the ankle issue by getting in some work on the side during practice, but he'll likely need to complete a full session or two between Wednesday and Friday to have a legitimate shot at making his season debut this weekend.

    Analysis: It's an early sign that Green isn't expected to play Week 14 against the Browns, though he mentioned Sunday that his ankle has been feeling better. Green hasn't practiced with teammates since Nov. 4, as he was bothered by swelling in the surgically repaired ankle shortly after he got back on the field.

    Green indicated that he hasn't experienced any swelling in his ankle of late, noting that "everything's trending up" at this stage, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: While that sounds encouraging, the report adds that the wideout still doesn't know if he'll play down the stretch. "When my ankle feels good enough to play, then I'll play," said Green, who hasn't participated in team drills since Nov. 4. He's therefore iffy, at best, for next Sunday's game against the Browns.
