Report: Steelers TE Ladarius Green sidelined with headaches, not ankle injury

The Pittsburgh Steelers prized free agent acquisition of 2016 has yet to see the field, and reports are circulating it isn't because of his surgically repaired ankle, but headaches.

As first reported by Aditi Kinkhabwala of NFL.com citing a member of the Steelers organization, Steelers prized free agent signing tight end Ladarius Green has been kept out of training camp so far due to reocurring headaches, not his ankle which he had surgery on as was originally reported when Green was placed on the PUP list.

When asked about Green yesterday Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said "He's progressing, but we really thought it would be touch-and-go up to this point," Tomlin said.
