Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green returned to practice on a limited basis on Thursday as he continues to recover from a head injury, according to ESPN.com's Coley Harvey.

Green reportedly participated only in "installs and warmups."

Green suffered the injury when he was hit by safety Mike Mitchell after making a catch in the fourth quarter of last Sunday's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In the loss, Green finished with eight catches for 82 yards. Over 12 games this season, Green has caught 69 passes for 1,041 yards and six touchdowns.

Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said on Wednesday that Green was going through the NFL's concussion protocol. He is reportedly still on the protocol.

Cincinnati (10-5) will face the Colts (11-5) in the Wild Card round of the playoffs on Sunday in Indianapolis.
