Bengals' wide receiver A.J. Green left Sunday’s game against the St. Louis Rams with a right shoulder injury.  His return is questionable.

In the second quarter, quarterback Andy Dalton threw a deep pass to Green who tripped on his own feet and fell on his right shoulder.

The rookie is closing in on a 1,000 yard season. If he can tack on 109 yards, he will have his first 1,000-yard receiving year.  He had four receptions for 94 yards before leaving Sunday's game.

Update: Green is back in the game.

Update: Green had six catches and topped 1,000 yards for the season.  He has 1,006 yards receiving, three short of Cris Collinsworth's franchise rookie record in 1981.
