The Cincinnati Bengals will be without wide receiver A.J. Green for another week, as head coach Marvin Lewis has already ruled out the three-time Pro Bowler for a Week 7 game against the Indianapolis Colts, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Green, 26, did not practice all week with a toe injury and was listed as doubtful for the game after missing Week 6 for the same injury. He was listed as questionable last week, but was declared inactive and Lewis told reporters that it was a “day-to-day” injury.
With the team's top receiver out of the lineup in Week 6, quarterback Andy Dalton relied instead on receiver Mohamed Sanu, who finished a 37-37 tie with the Carolina Panthers with 10 receptions for 120 yards and a touchdown. Sanu will again be the player to look for in the Cincinnati passing offense and Brandon Tate will be the likely starter opposite him.
Through three games in 2014, Green has 17 receptions for 314 yards and two touchdowns. He accumulated 3,833 yards receiving and 29 touchdowns in his first three NFL seasons, earning Pro Bowl bids in all three.
