Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green is not practicing on Wednesday, according to Paul Dehner Jr. of The Cincinnati Enquirer. Green suffered a toe injury during the season opener but managed to return to that game and play in Week 2. He aggravated the injury early in Week 2 against the Falcons and left the game, however.

Green has been adamant that he expects to return for Cincinnati's Week 3 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. His injury isn't considered severe, but given that he aggravated it upon his return to action, it's possible he misses a game to give it extra time to heal. It's too early to tell what's going to happen just yet.
Fantasy Football: Green is one of the best receivers in the league and doesn’t like to miss time. He’ll certainly be his own biggest advocate when it comes to whether or not he’ll start, but the decision will ultimately be made by the coaches. For now, fantasy owners should make sure they have some backup options available, but there’s reason to think he could play and start on Sunday. Cincinnati has a bye in Week 4.
