A.J. Green successfully made his return to the field for his first game since 2018, and the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver opened his stat line with an 11-yard catch on the second drive of the season opener against the L.A. Chargers on Sunday.
Burrow went 1-for-2 on the opening drive but the Bengals went three-and-out. The Chargers punted on their first possession as well, but Green caught the first ball Burrow threw his way on a first-and-10 to start Cincinnati’s second drive.
Green missed all of the 2019 season with an ankle injury and was limited this training camp because of hamstring tightness. He’s playing on a franchise tag this season and seeks a long-term deal to finish his career in Cincinnati.
