The Bengals have looked lost in the passing game in two of their three games since the All-Pro wideout last played on Oct. 5.
The team intentionally kept him on the bench to help him get close to 100 percent, a move typically reserved for injuries that tend to linger. This week, Cincinnati faces the Jaguars, who have one of the worst pass defenses in the entire league. Green should have no problem getting open and he'll be there to help quarterback Andy Dalton improve from a disappointing season.
Fantasy impact: Fantasy owners have to start him. Green is a top-10 play and it would seem only an aggravation can keep him down. Plus, not having running back Giovani Bernard helps, too.
