Would go a long way towards explaining his off year. Green only had 43 catches for 574 yards in his last 11 games.
For comparison, he had 66 catches for 964 yards in essentially 9 games in 2016 (he was injured very early in his 10th game). At least I'm hoping Green was playing hurt. He'll be 30 next year, so we might be seeing some slippage sometime soon.
As for the Eifert explanation, didn't Green play a Pro Bowl the year after Eifert's injury?

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
