The first-round draft pick from Texas A&M and former blue-chip recruit from Atascosita High School just returned to practice Wednesday from a concussion that sidelined him for two weeks after clearing the NFL concussion protocol.
Green was replaced in the starting lineup by Max Scharping, who struggled and allowed one sack where quarterback Davis Mills fumbled and Scharping recovered.
“Kenyon Green was able to get back into full-speed work,” Texans coach Lovie Smith said this week. “Eventually we’ll get him out there. The biggest thing was to get him back into the mix. He missed a couple weeks, so we’ll gradually get him back into the full-time mix, but no issues, right on track. We’ll see how it goes.”
“I mean, it’s not 100 percent wearing those covers,” Smith said. “Of course, you lessen the odds of getting concussion, but nothing is 100 percent in football. It wasn’t a big blow or anything like that. The game of football, there’s no way we can eliminate concussions in our game, but you stay out, and eventually you get back clear. We’ve really taken our time with him.
Green started two games at right tackle, one at left tackle, two at right guard, and seven at left guard last season for the Aggies.
