Bengals WR A.J. Green (concussion) doubtful for Wild Card Game
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green is doubtful for Sunday's AFC Wild Card game against the Indianapolis Colts as he recovers from a concussion, Paul Dehner Jr. of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Green did not practice on Friday, team writer Geoff Hobson reports.
He practiced on a limited basis on Thursday, going through installs and warmups. As part of the league's concussion protocol, he will need to be cleared by an independent neurologist on Saturday in order to play on Sunday.
Green was injured on a hit from Pittsburgh Steelers safety Mike Mitchell during the fourth quarter of Monday's Week 17 game.
