Bengals WR A.J. Green (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Week 15. He returned to limited practices this week but won’t play against the Steelers on Sunday. A Week 16 return looks possible, so Green is still worth stashing. Brandon LaFell and Tyler Boyd will again serve as Cincinnati’s top 2 WRs this Sunday.

Bengals WR A.J. Green is "probably not going to play" against the Steelers this weekend, according to ESPN's Katherine Terrell. This sounds like more opinion than report, but it makes sense. Green is returning from a serious hamstring injury and has been limited in practice this week. We'll get an official update from the team later today.

Bengals WR A.J. Green (hamstring) is expected to return to practice on Wednesday, according to HC Marvin Lewis. Lewis went on to call Green's Week 15 outlook "partly sunny" -- whatever that means. It at least looks like he has a shot to play against the Steelers on Sunday. An active Green would be a must-start in fantasy and also give QB Andy Dalton a nice boost.

As expected, Bengals WR A.J. Green (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns. He's yet to resume practicing, so a Week 15 return seems unlikely. Brandon LaFell and Tyler Boyd will serve as Cincinnati's top 2 WRs in this weekend's plus matchup.

Bengals WR A.J. Green told the media on Friday that he's dealing with a Grade 2 hamstring tear, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer's Jim Owczarski. Hamstring injuries are on a scale of 1 to 3, so Green's is smack dab in the middle. A Grade 2 tear generally comes with a 4-6 week timeline, which would make Week 16 Green's earliest probable return. He added that he's hoping to play again this season, even if it's not until Week 17.

ESPN's Bon Holtzman confirms that Bengals WR A.J. Green (hamstring) won't play against the Eagles this weekend. It sounds like he'll play again this season, but we don't have a concrete timetable for his return. Brandon LaFell and Tyler Boyd will again operate as Cincinnati's top 2 WRs on Sunday.

Bengals HC Marvin Lewis said Monday that WR A.J. Green suffered a hamstring strain and is moving better than expected, according to Bengals.com's Geoff Hobson. "Sounds like no surgery and they're taking it week by week," Hobson adds. That's much rosier than Ian Rapoport's Sunday report of a "significant" tear that threatened Green's season. Lewis reportedly said he thinks Green will be back "by end of season," which suggests they expect him to miss multiple games. The Bengals have ruled him out for Sunday at Baltimore. We'll see beyond that. Hang on to Green in your fantasy football league for now, and we'll see how this situation develops.

Bengals WR A.J. Green is believed to have a "significant" tear in his hamstring, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He's scheduled for an MRI to get a better idea of the damage. We should learn more tomorrow, but it sounds like Green is staring at a multi-week absence. That'd leave Brandon LaFell and Tyler Boyd as Cincinnati's top 2 WRs. It should also mean a bigger role for TE Tyler Eifert.

Update: The Bengals "fear" that Green is done for the season, according to Geoff Hobson of the team's official website.

Bengals WR A.J. Green injured his leg early in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game against the Bills. He needed to be carted back to the locker room. We'll update his status when we learn more.

Update: Green has a hamstring injury and is done for the day.

Bengals WR A.J. Green didn't sound concerned about his knee injury in a sideline interview with NBC's Michelle Tafoya during the 2nd half of Sunday night's preseason game. “I think I came down on it… just banged knees,” Green said. “I’m fine. It sucks because I wanted to play a little bit longer. It’s not serious at all. I’m fine now.” We also heard that Green would have returned had it been a regular-season game. We'll keep an eye on him, but his fantasy stock looks unaffected.

Bengals WR A.J. Green left Sunday's preseason game against Jacksonville early with a right knee injury, sporting a noticeable limp. But the Cincinnati Enquirer reports that the team said the injury was not serious and that Green would have returned were it a regular-season game. We'll certainly keep an eye on the situation for any further news, but go on drafting Green in the 1st round barring some unexpected bad news.

Bengals WR A.J. Green (back) is "on track to play" against the Broncos on Monday night, per the Cincinnati Enquirer.  Green suffered a bruised back in last Saturday's walkthrough and was limited to just 59% of the snaps in a game against the 49ers that the Bengals controlled.  He'll be needed in a full role this week.  The tough matchup makes Green more of a WR2, though.

10:31am EDT 9/27/15

Bengals WR A.J. Green (knee) is active for today’s game against the Ravens. The knee isn’t a concern. Green has posted lines of 6-131-1, 4-61-1 and 8-151-1 in his last 3 vs. Baltimore.

Bengals WR A.J. Green (knee) is probably for this weekend’s game against the Ravens. He got Wednesday off before putting in full practices on Thursday and Friday. The knee isn’t a concern. Green is a WR1 vs. a Baltimore defense he’s scored in 3 straight games against.

Bengals WR A.J. Green (knee) returned to practice on Thursday.  It confirms that he's in no danger of missing this weekend's game against the Ravens.  Keep Green locked into fantasy lineups vs. a defense he's scored on in 3 straight meetings.
