College career
Green attended college at Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. He earned four letters with the Demons from 1996 to 1999.[2]
Professional career
Chicago Bears
Green was the last player selected in the 2000 NFL draft, a spot which earns the drafted player the dubious distinction of "Mr. Irrelevant".[3] Green played for the Chicago Bears from 2000 to 2005. During his career in Chicago he once recorded a 100-tackle season and was described as "a vital cog in the Bears' secondary."[4]
Seattle Seahawks
Green was acquired by the Seattle Seahawks in an April 2006 trade with the Bears in exchange for a sixth round pick.[5] On August 26, 2006, he suffered a lisfranc fracture and was placed on injured reserve. Green functioned as a backup safety and cornerback during the 2007 season. He was released from the Seahawks on July 25, 2008.
Washington Redskins
Green signed with the Washington Redskins on October 14, 2008,[6] taking the roster spot of Reed Doughty, who was placed on the injured reserve after suffering a back injury. He was not re-signed following the end of the season making him a free agent.
