Green was waived by the Saints on Wednesday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Green was promoted from the Saints' practice squad for Monday's game against the Colts, but his time on the 53-man roster was short lived. The 24-year-old is a candidate to rejoin the practice squad, assuming he clears waivers.

Colts' T.J. Green: Week-to-week with hamstring injury
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) is listed as week-to-week after suffering a hamstring injury in Saturday's preseason game, ESPN 1070 am Indianapolis reports.
His status for the start of the regular season is in question as a result. Malik Hooker and Clayton Geathers have returned from injuries and look set to start at safety, but the Colts could have depth issues with Green and Ronald Martin (shoulder) hurt.

Colts' T.J. Green: Absent from injury report
Rotowire
Green (neck) was left off of Wednesday's injury report.
Green is expected to play Sunday against the Rams. Although he is still a backup, he recorded 43 tackles last season and proved he can hold his own, so Green should still see a fair share of defensive snaps.

Colts' T.J. Green: Could move to cornerback
Rotowire
Green could be moved to cornerback as he's been getting reps at the position in practice, the Indianapolis Star reports.
It's not clear if he'll permanently move positions or be used at both spots to help depth in the secondary. Green has the speed (4.34 seconds in the 40-yard dash) to play cornerback, but he hasn't played the position before in his career or in college.

Colts' T.J. Green: Nearing return to practice
Rotowire
Green (knee) is nearing a return to practice, Kevin Bowen of the Colts' official site reports.
Green went down in the season opener with a knee sprain and was ultimately unable to play Week 2. While a return to practice this week would improve his odds of playing Week 3, it wouldn't guarantee his availability. Green should continue to be considered week-to-week until further notice.

Colts' T.J. Green: Held out of practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Green did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
After suffering a knee sprain in Sunday's game against the Lions, Green was listed as week-to-week, so his lack of presence at Wednesday's practice does not come as a surprise. The good news for the Colts is that Clayton Geathers is expected to return to practice this week, which relieves them of some depth issues at safety should Green be held out of this weekend's game.

Colts' T.J. Green: Week-to-week with knee sprain
Rotowire
Green (knee) is currently being listed as week-to-week, Mike Chappel of IndySportsCentral.com reports.
Green suffered a knee sprain during Sunday's matchup with the Lions, but it's considered just a mild sprain, which is good news for the Colts. He's still being listed as week-to-week and remains highly questionable for the Colts' Week 2 matchup with the Broncos, but we should see his status updated again closer to game day. Clayton Geathers got limited work at practice on Tuesday and is nearing a return to the field, but is also questionable for Sunday, leaving the Colts with minimal healthy options at safety for the time being.

Colts' T.J. Green: Injured in regular season opener
Rotowire
Green suffered a knee sprain during the Colts' Week 1 matchup against the Lions.
Fortunately, Green was able to jog to the locker room under his own power, but the exact specifics of his injury are unclear at this point in time, as are his chances to return to the game. Nonetheless, his forced absence comes at a poor time for an injury-depleted Colts defense already playing without starting FS Clayton Geathers (foot), not to mention cornerbacks Vontae Davis (ankle) and Darius Butler (ankle).

Colts' T.J. Green: Returns to practice
Rotowire
Green (calf) returned to practice Monday, the Indianapolis Star reports.
Green hadn't practiced since the Colts' opening day of training camp due to a sprained calf, so he'll be eager to catch up on the reps he missed while sidelined. If Green's development goes well, the rookie second-rounder could compete for Indianapolis' starting free safety job.

Colts' T.J. Green: Day-to-day with calf injury
Rotowire
Green is day-to-day with a strained calf, George Bremer of the Herald Bulletin reports.
The Colts' second round pick in this year's draft, Green was seen sporting a walking boot to further protect a calf injury that was initially deemed to be just cramps. With starting safety Clayton Geathers already week-to-week with a foot injury, Winston Guy will slide in as the starting safety alongside Pro-Bowler Mike Adams.
