Fantasy Impact: The tough part about Green’s injury is that he was able to play through it to start the season and then was abruptly carted off of the field at practice in between games. That shows how tricky a toe- or foot-related injury can be.
There’s no doubt Green is one of the most explosive players in the game when he’s healthy. He’s big, he’s fast and he has great hands. He’s always a threat to score a touchdown. However, fantasy owners have to wonder whether he’ll be effective when he does return to the lineup.
For now, it's still quite possible he could play in the team's Week 8 game against the Baltimore Ravens, but fantasy owners should wait and see if he practices later in the week before coming to any conclusions.
