Green is considered one of the best players to ever don The Red & Black.

The Summerville, S.C., native appeared in 32 games for the Bulldogs in three seasons from 2008-2010 and caught 166 passes for 2,619 yards and 23 touchdowns.

Despite Green’s short career in Athens, the 2011 No. 4 overall pick left Georgia with the second-most receiving touchdowns, the third-most career receiving yards and the fourth-most career receptions in UGA history.
