Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Ladarius Green returned to practice Friday after missing Thursday's session.

Green remains in the NFL's concussion protocol and must be fully cleared if he is to play Sunday against the New England Patriots, but will travel with the team to the game, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports.

That indicates the Steelers have optimism Green will be available to suit up.

A free-agent addition in the spring, Green has been a useful weapon for Ben Roethlisberger when healthy, but missed most of the regular season and all of postseason so far with various ailments.
