Good news on AJ but starting to wonder if Glenn is ever going to be cleared to play this year. 1 month is a really long time to be in concussion protocol.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green has shed his protective boot, marking a positive step in his recovery from ankle surgery.
Green told reporters on Wednesday that he has progressed to running on a gravity assisted treadmill, but he stopped short of placing a timetable on a possible return to the field.
"Just making sure I don't come back too soon and hurt it again," said Green, who worked out with Bengals strength and conditioning coach Joey Boese on Wednesday.
Green was carted off the field during the team's first training camp practice at the University of Dayton.
The 31-year-old missed seven games last season with an injured right toe, falling short of 1,000 receiving yards for just the second time in his eight-year career.
Green has 602 receptions for 8,907 yards and 63 touchdowns in 111 games since the Bengals selected him fourth overall in the 2011 NFL Draft.
Elsewhere, left tackle Cordy Glenn missed another practice as he remains in concussion protocol. He was concussed during the preseason on Aug. 15.

I'll guess we will turn this into a prediction thread and ultimately a game thread like last week.
I think we are all please with the close loss last week and optimistic to see if the Cats can continue to surprise. Niners appear to be a decent test, but they are also facing some uncertainty in various positions. The defense made enough of a believer out of me last week to say that the key to a win this week is once again the Oline. I'd like to see some good run blocking for sure. But if the pass blocking is at least as good as last week, we should net the win.
No blowout, but I think we control the game the entire way.
Bengals 26
Niners - 20

I think we've got this. The offense will show up again, and the defense will own the 9ers. 31-10 good guys.

Running game still AWOL. Mix is going to get frustrated if he doesnt get at least 75 yds this game.
