Former Cleveland Browns cornerback AJ Green shared a message on Tuesday shortly after inking a deal with the Minnesota Vikings.
Green had an interesting ride with the Browns after joining the team as an undrafted free agent in 2020. He appeared in 34 games with a pair of starts. Green nabbed two interceptions and was also a contributor on special teams.
Green decided to sign a reserve/future deal with the Vikings but he leaves Cleveland on good terms.
“Thankful for the Last 4 Years in Cleveland I appreciate the Fans, Front Office, Coaches, and Players I established a relationship with over the years!” Green wrote on X.
Cracking the cornerback depth chart in Cleveland is no easy task. The Browns have touted probably the best trio of cover men in the league in Greg Newsome, Martin Emerson Jr. and Pro Bowler Denzel Ward. The team also drafted Cameron Mitchell in the fifth-round and he saw some time on the field.
Green will have a chance to crack the active roster in Minnesota and continue his NFL journey.
