4 years agoCincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green is unlikely to sign a deal with the team ahead of the franchise-tag deadline, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Green was franchise tagged by Cincinnati earlier in the offseason, but it is unlikely he plays on a new contract barring "a final-hour, surprise push." Green has technically not actually signed his franchise tag, but he is fully expected to play on it this season. The veteran star wideout is primed for a big bounce-back this season, provided he can stay healthy. That, however, is a bit of a question, as he has appeared in just nine of a possible 32 games over the past two seasons. If healthy, Green can be treated as an upside WR2 in fantasy drafts.--Matt T - RotoBaller
