Bengals fans and fantasy owners alike can let out a collective sigh of relief. A.J. Green returned to practice today.
Practice news: #Bengals WR AJ Green (groin) is in pads and practicing today. So is #Packers RT Bryan Bulaga (back), though TE Jimmy Graham is not.

After sustaining a groin injury in the Bengals' Week 3 game against Carolina, there were reports that Green could miss time. Having tallied five catches for 58 yards on eight targets before departing early in the second half, those would have been some big shoes to fill .

With Green back on the field, that's great news for his as well as Andy Dalton fantasy owners.
Marvin Lewis very optimistic about A.J. Green. Said was aggravation of college injury, anti-inflammatories clearing everything up. Big sigh of relief. I'll still use his line, "I see better than I hear," but obviously a lot of optimism around 18 playing Sunday.

Barring any setbacks, Green looks like a good bet to play Sunday, putting him securely in the WR1 conversation.
