Jeremy Hill, the second round pick out of LSU is the logical choice to take over at Running Back this year. His speed and agility are just better than Green-Ellis can produce right now.
Green-Ellis has also been battling a nagging hip injury recently, but did put on a clinic against the colts with 90 rushing yards and 70 receiving yards. Apparently its a little too late and not enough for the Bengals.
Here are Green-Ellis's career stats... Do you think he has a place anywhere in the NFL? Comment below!
