Due to him still being on the team’s Active PUP list, new Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Ladarius Green will obviously miss the Friday night preseason opener against the Detroit Lions. Additionally, one can probably go ahead and count on Green missing the team’s second preseason game next Thursday against the Philadelphia Eagles as well.
According to Aditi Kinkhabwala of the NFL Network, however, recurring headaches are currently keeping Green off the practice field and on Active PUP and not his surgically repaired ankle.
“His ankle is fine,” Green’s agent, Adisi Bakara, reportedly said Wednesday night, according to Kinkhabwala.
