What happened: Todd Monken said Green could be active Sunday, when Cleveland opens the season at Jacksonville. The Sept. 13 road game is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET.

Why it matters: Dressing a third quarterback would affect how Cleveland uses a game-day roster spot. Green's availability would give Jacksonville another offensive personnel option to prepare for.

What to watch: The game-day inactive list will settle Green's availability. Any offensive snaps would reveal the scope of Monken's plan.
