A.J. Green’s time in Cincinnati has come to an end.
After 10 seasons with the Bengals, the former first-round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft is moving on to Arizona as the Cardinals have agreed to terms with the free agent receiver.
This news was first reported by ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. Schefter is reporting that Green’s deal is worth up to $8.5 million with $6 million guaranteed.
During his NFL career, Green has appeared in 127 games, making 125 starts during that time. He’s caught 649 passes for 9,430 yards and 65 touchdowns.
Green missed the entire 2019 season due to injury but rebounded well last season, appearing in all 16 games and making 14 starts for the Bengals — although his 47 catches, 523 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns were all career-lows for Green.
