  OSU head coach Mike Gundy says that by the end of the week he'll know more about the wrist injury that has kept receiver/tight end Blaine Green out of practice for several days. Green suffered the injury about 10 days into preseason camp and Gundy said late last week that he was unsure of the timetable of the sophomore's absence. Among returning pass-catchers, Green had the second-most yards last season with 314 and a touchdown on 21 catches. He started the year as an inside receiver, but moved into more of a hybrid role with some tight end responsibilities. This year, Green is expected to be more regularly used as a tight end, so an extended absence could hurt the depth at that position, where only returning starter Braden Cassity has any significant experience. - Daily Oklahoman
