Theory about AJ - has he given up?

[SunsetBengal]

I don't believe that a player of the character and integrity of an AJ Green would "give up". Given the circumstances of our current situation, I could see how his people might advise him to go ahead and get a surgery or procedure done, rather than putting it off until the offseason. If this team appeared confident, and competitive with league leaders, I could absolutely see him toughing it out for the team.
