One of the greatest players in Cincinnati Bengals history is hanging up the cleats.

Former Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green has announced his retirement after an incredible 11-year career.

Green immediately became a star for the Bengals from the moment he was drafted fourth overall out of Georgia in 2011. While he didn’t say much off the field, he carried Cincinnati’s offense on the field for most of his time in the Queen City.

The Summerville, SC native played nine seasons (127 games) for the Bengals and recorded 649 receptions, 9,430 receiving yards, and 65 touchdowns.
