Green signed a one-year contract with the Texans on Monday, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Green spent the first four years of his career in Seattle, after being selected in the third round of the 2018 Draft. Last season, Green compiled 48 tackles (27 solo), 6.5 sacks and four passes defensed, which were all career highs, in 17 games. The USC product played a significant role on the Seahawks' defensive line in 2021 and figures to do the same next season for the Texans.

Green posted 48 tackles (27 solo), 6.5 sacks and four pass breakups over 17 games during the 2021 season.

EDGE Analysis

In his fourth NFL season at just 24 years old, Green posted a career high in sacks, tying Darrell Taylor for second on the team in the category. Green will be an unrestricted free agent in March, but the Seahawks have plenty of incentive to keep him around because the team's pass rush has struggled in recent years. However, it will have Taylor and veteran Carlos Dunlap signed for the 2022 season.

Green registered four tackles (two solo) and one sack during Monday's loss to the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

Green's 2021 campaign got off to a hot start, as he totaled four tackles, two pass deflections and one sack during the Seahawks' Week 1 win over the Colts. However, the 24-year-old defensive end recorded just 14 tackles over the next five games. Green continues to garner the majority of the snaps at defensive end, but his sporadic production makes him a risky play in standard IDP formats.

Green posted four tackles (three solo), two pass breakups and a sack in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Colts.

EDGE Analysis

Green led the Seahawks' deep group of defensive ends with 53 snaps, and he capitalized on the opportunity with his eighth career sack. The 2018 third-round pick is explosive off the line and will likely maintain his lead role for the time being. In Week 2, he'll take aim at Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who was sacked five times in the opener.

The Seahawks activated Green (neck) from injured reserve Saturday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Green has looked good enough through two weeks of practice to return to action for Sunday's game versus the Bills. L.J. Collier handled the starting duties while Green was out, but now Carlos Dunlap, whom the Seahawks acquired via trade from the Bengals, is in the fold and could eat into Green's workload. Rookie Alton Robinson has been impressive as well. Green will have to battle to secure a consistent snap share on this defense, and most of the pass-rushing work will be designated for Dunlap and Robinson for now.

Green (neck) has been designated to return from injured reserve, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Green hasn't played since the season opener, but according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times, the third-year defensive end out of USC is expected to return to the lineup Sunday against the 49ers. L.J. Collier and Benson Mayowa are the team's starting defensive ends, although Green and Collier essentially split time Week 1. However, the Seahawks acquired veteran defensive end Carlos Dunlap via trade from the Bengals on Wednesday, so both Green and Collier likely will forfeit snaps moving forward.

Head coach Pete Carroll says that Green (neck) is set to practice this week, with hopes he can get back Nov. 8 against the Bills, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

This development indicates Green will become officially designated for return in the coming days, putting an end to his month-long stint on injured reserve. Green suffered the injury during Seattle's season-opening win over the Falcons, and he hasn't been able to suit up for another game since. Last season the 23-year-old started eight times while making 16 appearances for the Seahawks, collecting four sacks and three forced fumbles.

Green (neck) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Green has a stinger and will be forced to miss at least three games. His long-term absence means L.J. Collier will be the clear starter opposite Benson Mayowa (groin) on the defensive line, while Damontre Moore and rookie Alton Robinson should see an uptick in usage.

Green (neck) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Green will miss his second straight contest due to the neck injury he sustained in the season opener. In his stead, count on 2019 first-round pick L.J. Collier to again handle increased defensive snaps.

Green (neck) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Green was initially listed as doubtful for Week 2, so his lack of availability isn't much of a surprise. In his stead, L.J. Collier stands to see a sharp uptick in snaps at defensive end across from Benson Mayowa.
