CINCINNATI, Dec. 9 (UPI) -- You've likely already locked up a replacement for A.J. Green, but it looks like you might have to wait a little bit longer for a comeback.
#Bengals wideout A.J. Green said he suffered a grade 2 hamstring tear, but he's working to get back this season - even if it's week 17.

Green was carted off of the field during the Cincinnati Bengals' Week 11 loss to the Buffalo Bills after suffering a right hamstring injury. After undergoing an MRI, the Bengals feared he was lost for the season. But Bengals coach Marvin Lewis later said that Green could return this year. The perennial Pro Bowl pick missed Week 12 and Week 13.
Out for Sunday: Green, Gilberry, Wright, DSmith, Uzomah

Green is not practicing, due to the grade-2 hamstring tear, and has also been ruled out for this week's matchup against the Cleveland Browns. If Green can mange to return to the field, it will be hard to keep him out of your fantasy football team's lineup with matchups against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Houston Texans.
