Cincinnati Bengals receiver A.J. Green has declared himself "way ahead of schedule" as he continues to work his way back after undergoing ankle surgery in late July.
Green suffered a sprained ankle during training camp on July 27. He went under the knife on July 30, and the procedure was expected to sideline him for 6-8 weeks.
Six weeks removed from the operation, Green took off his walking boot Tuesday and has not experienced any pain yet, per ESPN's Ben Baby:
