Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green was listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The 28-year-old Green returned to practice this week but was a limited participant.

Green is likely to miss his fourth straight game since suffering a Grade 2 right hamstring tear on the second play from scrimmage in a Week 11 loss against the Buffalo Bills on Nov. 20.

Green is 36 receiving yards short of joining Randy Moss as the only NFL Players with 1,000 or more yards in their first six seasons.

The Bengals also listed defensive end Wallace Gilberry as doubtful with a calf injury.
