A.J. Green is healthy, playing well; fantasy value very high

A.J. Green has moved on from his toe injury and is playing well. We break down the fantasy implications.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green had an excellent game against the New Orleans Saints, and attributed that to him finally being healthy and getting in a full week of practice, as noted by Coley Harvey of ESPN. Green said that he "took every rep" this past week in preparation for the Saints and Cincinnati's offense was stellar throughout the game.

Green caught six passes for 127 yards and a touchdown against the Saints, his second-best game of the season. His best came in Week 1, when he caught six passes for 131 yards and a touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens. On the season, he has 29 catches for 508 yards and four touchdowns.

Fantasy Impact: Green's toe injury limited him big time in recent weeks, as he only caught three of the 10 passes thrown his way against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. Those three passes only netted him 23 yards with no touchdowns. Fantasy owners will be glad to hear that Green has suffered no setbacks and seems good to go going forward.
