Early life

Green was born in Rochester, New York in 1956.[1] He attended Riverview High School in Sarasota, Florida,[2] and he played high school football for the Riverview Rams.

College career

Green accepted an athletic scholarship to attend the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, where he played for coach Doug Dickey's Florida Gators football team from 1974 to 1977.[3] Memorably, he rushed eleven times for 178 yards (a 16.2-yard average) against the Maryland Terrapins in 1974, and ran eighty yards for a touchdown against the Mississippi State Bulldogs in 1977.[3] He was a first-team All-Southeastern Conference (SEC) selection as a senior in 1977.[3] Green finished his four-year college career with 2,590 rushing yards on 445 carries (a 5.8-yard average), 287 yards receiving, and 775 yards in punt and kickoff returns.[3]

Professional career

The Washington Redskins chose Green in the sixth round (156th pick overall) in the 1978 NFL Draft,[4] and he played for the Redskins for a single season in 1978.[5] He had a remarkable rookie season as the Redskins' primary kick return specialist in 1978: forty-two punt return for 440 yards, and thirty-four kickoff returns for 870 yards.[1] Green was selected for the Pro Bowl as a kick returner after the season ended.[1]
