AJ Green reportedly visiting with specialist for foot injury

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver AJ Green suffered a toe injury in last week’s win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and there have been differing reports about the severity. The latest sounds a bit concerning.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Green is scheduled to visit with a foot specialist during the Bengals’ bye this week after he experienced swelling in his toe. No treatment options — including surgery — have been ruled out.

#Bengals star WR AJ Green was slated to visit foot specialist Dr. Robert Anderson in Green Bay during the bye, sources say, as his toe swelled up. Clarity is coming soon, with everything — day-to-day, week-to-week, surgery — on the table for Green. Big appointment.

Green was spotted in a walking boot earlier in the week, but Paul Dehner of The Cincinnati Enquirer was told by a source that the receiver expects to be “fine.” At the very least, there seems to be some uncertainty over how serious the injury is.

Green’s 687 yards receiving rank 9th in the NFL this season. He’s on pace for another 1,000-yard season, which would be his seventh in eight years in the NFL.
