Hopes to continue career
Green (concussion) wants to sign with a new team and play this season, ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler reports.
ANALYSIS
Signed to a four-year, $20 million contract last offseason, Green was released by the Steelers on Thursday after failing a physical. He's apparently still dealing with symptoms from last season's concussion, which was at least the third significant head injury of his pro career. Green also dealt with ankle injuries each of the past three seasons, with the most recent one requiring major surgery last offseason and leading to an eight-game absence to start the 2016 campaign. He should draw interest from quite a few teams if he's eventually able to pass a physical, as his career marks of 14.6 yards per catch and 9.0 yards per target are top-notch for a tight end. Green only has eight touchdowns in 53 games through five seasons, but he's shown a penchant for scoring from distance that's rare at his position, with seven of those TDs spanning 19 or more yards. The Steelers, meanwhile, are left with Jesse James and Xavier Grimble at the top of the depth chart at tight end.

The freakishly-athletic Green teased fantasy owners for years while playing behind Antonio Gates in San Diego, and last season was supposed to be his coming-out party after he signed on with the Steelers' high-octane passing attack. Instead, Green appeared in just six games due to an offseason ankle procedure and a troublesome concussion, catching just 18 passes for 304 yards and a score, and he was eventually released during the offseason with a failed physical. If the concussion symptoms dissolve and Green can prove he has successfully shaken off any and all lingering effects, don't be surprised if several teams make a bid to secure the sixth-year tight end's services.
