Green should not be out for a long time. He is an important player for the Bengals offense and the news is great for the team. The team would love to have Green back this weekend, but that status is still up in the air and the coaching staff has not shared any information on his possible playing time for the weekend.
We will be paying attention to the practice reports to see if he is able to get on the field. The team just needs his foot to be healthy. They may want to wait it out a week to ensure that it is good to go for the rest of the year.
