Garrett Greene ready for a position change as he tries to make NFL roster

Former West Virginia quarterback Garrett Greene is trying to make his way onto an NFL roster this summer but he will be doing so as not as a quarterback, but as a wide receiver.

This comes not as much of a surprise, as Greene, a dual-threat QB for the Mountaineers, brings speed with a smaller frame to the professional ranks.

"It's hard to make the NFL as a 5-foot-10 quarterback," Greene told the Tallahassee Democrat.

Greene passed for 2,300 yards and 15 touchdowns, while also throwing 12 interceptions. On the ground, Greene had 751 yards and six scores this past season, while in his career a WVU, he surpassed 2,000 yards on the ground while he ran for 28 touchdowns.
