"He's somebody that we gotta make a designation on right now and feel like we're going to get him back in the first eight weeks," Taylor told local reporters. "We're just going to continue to carry him on the roster."

"Right now, everything's been on schedule, and we intend on him coming back the first half of the season," Taylor said. Green has not spoken to the media since he the injury occurred on July 27.

Even mentioning half the season really worries me.  Please God, don't let Eifert get hurt again, because I don't think we have a chance with just Boyd and Mixon carrying the load.

I agree with you.

All ZT said was no IR as we think he is back in 8 weeks. The pessimists will jump (no way of knowing his real projected date back) to he won;t be back until weeks 6 - 8. The optimists will jump (now way of knowing either)  to back in weeks 2 to 4.

I hope he is back sooner than later, but we all heal at different rates so no idea when he comes back to the rigors of starting on Sundays. But reading into it, he could have used his roster spot, but did not so I think Zac is confident if no setbacks he is back prior to week 6.
