The whole world changed again with 11:56 left in a scoreless first half Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium against the Broncos when A.J. Green grabbed his toe two steps into his route and fell down in a heap as quarterback Jeff Driskel suffered a sack. Green, returning for the first time since he hurt the toe on the last offensive snap before the bye on Oct. 28.

He could barely limp back to the bench and when he got there the usually impassive Green slammed his helmet to the ground and once he was on a cart to take him to the locker room he put his head in hisa hands. The question wasn't if he was done for the day. That was clear. The question is if he's done for the year.

Moments earlier the Broncos saw Pro Bowl cornerback Chris Harris carted off the field with a calf injury.
